I am not a teacher, I am just a writer

 I have written at lenght about the four seasons, https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html . That is a whole bunch of advices, things that I have learned as a Finn and as a dog owner with an interest in the nature. Lately when the text has been roughly ready, there have been in my living environment many people from the tropics, Arabs etc, people with difficulties in living even the basic skills in living the seasons, like that autumn exists or that the goal is to stay warm and regulate one's body temperature. I do not have any skills of teaching at such a level. My texts build upon what I have learned about learning dyúriung my school and university years, not upon tourism professionals' skills. The wilderness guide course that I was in supposed that being outdoors in the weathers is a well familiar thing for all.
It is very much the same with my other texts: I write a lot of advices and it seems impossible for me to manage to teach them to someone I meet. I am much better at writing, and then there is more time and dedication for the thing and it is done for a much wider audience which is much more motivating.

(For learning complex new skills like weather skills for example, keeping company isn't the best tactic. Instead one needs a good picture of the goal, so that one can notice what such skills require and later on one's own think how one oneself could learn things in that direction. If one would keep company to the skilled, those would have different habits than oneself, and so one's own habits do not support such skills, and so it is better to take the task a piece by piece, and do it on one's own ways so that one then really has those skills.)

20.2.2022   For me as a writer, what tyoe of writer i am, the only comparison that tends to come to my mind is : I have something of my own kind to offer, of a good quality, but not average in style , somehow central yet too unique to be so central in the society.

My writing work is over

 For the last four years i have concentrated more and more on writing my text Skills of Christmas gnomes. I do not know why but it is globally interesting subject that many read about sometimes. But the text has been ready for over a month, and i no longer have anything global to write about. So my career in writing is over, even though like others in this modern era i may write this and that, texts of no big signifogance or of not so good quality. Writing has obstructed my lufe surprisingly much, so there aren't much new subjects to write about. 

My birthday and my childhood name

My birthday is 8. of August. As numbers 8.8. it brings to my ming four round circle like things of which two pairs are more closely connected. The healthy round forms bring to my mind symbiosis and a model of the world. So it is like one form of my paradise theory. I have not noticed it having influenced my thinking, except that I have come to notice the possibility of such a model and on the other hand my childhood environment maybe saw such a view as part of what I might be like because of my birthday. Late summer is also a time of warmth at the same time with the need to defend the good things summer brings, the loves in one's life from the coming autumn and winter. So that too may have affected my view on what is the task of thinking, theory and work. * * * (7. March 2016 As a child I had the last name Hari, so my name Kaisa Hari bought the associations "keisari" = emperor and "tsaari" = Russian tsar (emperor). So I took it to my task to cultivate some...

About the skill levels and values of my environment

 I have lived most of my life at the capital district of Finland. Especially as younger almost all adults in my environment were academical or academically inclined. So the ordinary skill level of academical people and their amount of common sense and of following civiliced values has been quite typical in my younger years' environment, also what I have read had often been inclined toward communicating to such people. On the other hand academical people often seek to communicate globally in their work like writings, and so one typical point of comparison is the style and skill level of the thin Chinese who tend to use terminology, so even though we are in another cultural domain, the skill level often isn't so high that it would use a completely different approach without a communication possibility with also the thin Chibese being aimed at. And so after reading my texts many are disappointed at the level of quality and trustworthiness of my younger years' social envuronmen...
