About borders

 When I was in my twenties I used to go for a walk kn a forest maybe once a week or more seldom with my father who worked in forest growth research in the University of Helsinki. Helsinki is quite in the middle of the southern coast of Finland, so as far as I understood, we were in Finland, far from borders. But now years later I remember seeing the red-green poles somewhere, and sometimes also some blue-white pole or two, but no fence. So I would say that it is quite easy to go accidentally across such a border, but also to come back and go home. Similarly I have impression of having seen pictures of forbidding hand somewhere, but in such too one would need at least about one meter high fence to understand to where not to go, and to where one can retreat. Nice walks anyway. I just wonder where the present day borders are? 


The situation is not clear since the poles are roadside and the road looks ordinary. 

Million million roses

 The Russian song Million roses, by Alla Pugacheva,  see https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CAGlI_2vQpg&pp=ygUPbWlsam9vbmEgcnV1c3Vh , from the point of view of young women caring things well for life, each having lots of own wisdom of life, caring things well for life as if roses in the landscape around, "Oh, I could do this well, and that, and those there", like comparing women's skills of child bearing and caring for the family with an approach of keeping a carage, liking such skills and such a hobby.


Comparing such feelings with "oh, nice, this works well this way", "a fine culture here, landscapes and everything, wise old ways of living", etc

"Käy Muumilaaksoon"

 See the Muumi song in Finnish at https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BUIpX3XVVb8 



Elegia

  "Elegia 

(I translate very freely:)

Left behind is youth - like a flowing river.
Already grey threads - sets life's golden handiwork.
I reach for the present moment -
life's joy does not come from pleasant company or wine.

Left behind in time - my strenght's proud days.
The love of my spirit - in ancient times.
I rose from the pit. - I doubt I can fall again?
The wish of all: painless moments.

We know: peace in the grave is allowed us.
Seeker does not find comforting rest,
cool wind speaks, sun is obstructed from sight by storm,
a red line is left: a forceless longing for beauty.

Drown in the sea - my dreams' hills in flower.
I am a poor man: expensive are the costs of songs.
I gave my all, I had the forces to be active - for a while,
the loves f my dreams I paid by my mind's sorrow.

I am exhausted - oh, to the roots of my heart!
Was I given too much - life's load?
Or am I one of those wo have the will but not strenght?
My victory - empty, the results of my work - my conscience finds fault in them.

So in the end - were without a good reason born, difficulties,
broken chains - burned, loved ships?
Now already did I fall - when my all was needed?
I was solidified to ice - when my wound got a scar?

Hopeless fight - against heaven's powers!
Kannel sings - song does not comfort it's child.
Frost night speaks - tune sings - with collapsing wings.
To the peace of my pit - like a dying beast I sneak.


Eino Leino   ( My nonliteral translation)


This poem is a favourite of the elderly and they copy a lot from it, I think, since in Finnish it is very impressive, song like. I added the "-" lines to make it more understandable. I did not like the fact that while reaching for secrecy it mixes the skills brought by experience with things going poorly It is fact that most people have great potential and sometimes hardships make a break in the habits and give us a rise toward higher talent if just the advices are right. But on the other hand it aren't good to give an impression that great skill due to experience and reaching for good quality, would somehow usually connect to great misfortune. I guess that some of the typical errors of the lderly come from this poem, so I replaced "In vain, in vain, I grasp the moment" by "I reach for the present moment" which is a cure and not the problem like the first one: one should not let good years pass one by without living them.

My old blog: "My first own garden"

" the atmospheric visual beauty of nature 

 Interested in arts and painting and searching for beautiful sights at beautiful moments * you can maybe learn sometving such from my Christmas gnomes skills texts  learntalents.blogspot.com/2018/09 

Because I like looking I like living in a cold climate of the four seasons https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html , where it is natural to look just about all the time, and thinking oriented view to life and to the world benefits from pictorial thinking. (Trees in Finland compare weathers maybe with +10C, while in Canada trees seem to compare with -20C. So the climates there are very different from North-European. Please read my blog WeatherSkills.BlogSpot.com )

Pictures depend on climate preferencies and on valuing such things in life https://asorcerer.blogspot.com/2024/04/here-is-another-post-of-mine-bringing.html

Serene and fractureless means typically shared values, culture, skill levels, ways of living, wisdom of life and likings by the people there. A beatiful moment there means largely left in peace, like a moment of quiet when most went just in. The nature not bearing walking upon typically produces such sometimes. On the other hand in the more fertile area there may be really flourishing life, but northerners typically cannot bear so much heat. Anyway, left in peace and admired often produces some nice new leaves across time. 


27th of March 2025    In school age our family lived ina wooden house with garden, but my parents were dominating so much that only years later I had agarden of my own. The Finnish summer is quite short and I was reading a garden magazine Viherpiha, which was not for professionals but instead had nice pictures from the point of view if one would like to have some nice addition to one's garden, like certain types of flowers or some trees.

Work that became an enjoyable pleasant graving

 I do not know how to continue from this point. So I wondered if one coukd find works that are like a pleasant enjoyable graving to do. Did not kniw just what but lately much macking normal good healthy kind of element with nots of variation seems such, if one longs for such. 









I guess such ought not have detailed rules, but instead the details going variedly and one here and there instead giving it a nice buuff of air to boost somw promising feature without really touching it.

Advices in learning to compose music, is what I feel to have been asked for lately, see ComposingMelodies.BlogSpot.com 

But if I myself would now try making something similarly asked from me, it might be near my blog Walkinginbeautyofweathersetc.blogspot.com 

Anyway, such seems like a commercially good project ( but I haave no experience in such) i.e. doing what you like, doing it basic work like with good quality and choosing tasksthat areclearly wanted in the society, and you being good for that kinds of tasks.
