Kalevan kisat

 "  In the news there was some video of the Finnish sports happening Kalevan kisat, the games of Kaleva, referring to the cultural inheritage of Kalevala like things. I watched some foreigner, maybe from Central Europe, being quite satisfied with the nuce summer weather, being able to bear such amounts of cool and exoerience the summer time nature too, trees outside the field and some grasses, the feeling of summer time in the quite cool air. Thinking of Kalevala it brought to my mind the attempt to what would it affect sports' strenght and skills, if one thought of a nature landscape, wishing well for the world, all thibgs objectively and fairly well in wise ways and with wisdom of lufe, so all motivational factirs in one's picture of the world and in life in the living for the sports achievements, also social good will supporting others in supporting the good of the world, and the nature landscape making it easier to see at the same time, feel and get strenght from those feelings, suppirt the world wisely well so, how much more strenght, agility, etc it would give? And enjoyment of moving, of being alive, as a feeling caring being in the world, for better ways if living!

Such may relate to the climate demanding different things as the seasons change, and also the society changes as years pass.

As a word "kisat" means something like playfully running around, leisurely, like a garden game not taken seriously but nice if one wants such in the beginning of summer, like several guests giving it a try at some point of a loose summer celebration like meeting. In fact the word comes from the word for competition but it is not so much like for points but instead for fun, for the enjoyment of it, each one using the amount of time they feel interested kn investing in it right then, since sports are good for staying healthy and feeling well and for endurancy, also for heat regulation etc skills. It is a way of doing typical to people each one at some point trying something fine, like throwing a hulahula ring to the air in an atmospheric way born from the moment's observations and a likibg toward such, so the things done maybe are not so meanibgful, but instead fun and good for learning like children's games.

( Thinking of words, Kalevala means place somehow named after Kaleva. In phonetical meaning "ka" often refers to practical life according to traditional ways of life and culture's main current. In the Swedish language "le" means to smile. And in the Finnish language "vauva" means "a baby" and "vaan" means only, solely. So it could be that if teaditional practical life makes a baby smile in a music like way, it may be a mark that the baby has high skills, kind of music level potential. Similarly, if oractical life of the teaditional type makes a person always just smile, maybe they have a good capacity to such and to life in general and are interested in practical life, for examole sports, maybe in a musical way. So a place following such people's views on skills and values, might be with very high skills, maybe worth comparing with Kalevala type skills, maybe being interested in learning such types of skills. )
