Drinking songs

 To be clear, I never drink alcohol, since I want to cure the ways of living to fully good, healthy and happy, natural and wise, pleasant and enjoyable enough. 

But as I thpught of indigenous people in Borneo in the tropics, and would they like my advices about learning to compose music at LearnTalents.BlogSpot.com/2023/09 , ( especially A10. and A11. but also other entries ), the impression I got was so even, kind of depressed in my eyes, that I came to think of the words "Sing and drink!" but did not remember which song it was, but in Finnish there is at least the Christmas Song "Hei tonttu-ukot hyppikää" which was liked by engineers. 

"Hi you Chrismas gnomes, lets start jumping around!


Hi you Christmas gnomes lets start jumping around!

Now is the joyful most fresh time!

Only a moment lasts human life.

And that too dark and boring. 

Hi you Christmas gnomes, lets start jumping around."


 Juodaan viinaa (the video has English lyrics available if you choose them from a subtitles box )

(The name of the band is something like forest dwelling men, and the reason for drinking strong alcohol is that ones with a wise picture of the world and wisdom of life, see that people have to take care that ways of living and the world would be good for lufe in the long run, in a good quality way. But they run into people who do not see that they would affect the world or that lufe shoukd be cultivated wisely, they tjink irrationally that the level of the whole world would take care of itself, not realising that all have to care the world good for future generations, even if it isn't their job, and even if people near by have widely different levels of understanding. And so they socially dominate over the wise ones, trying if they could by force or by murders or by square thinking in place of wisdom in the workings of the group and society, dominate somehow over people with different style, and so they destroy just about everything wise the group had in use. And so some wise and some dominating think would this lufe together work out better by slnetines drinking, kind of taking a break from the wise views, and then maybe continuing in working life as usual. Or have kids, or break ties with some. 

I never drink, so my opinion is that such is a time to change company, maybe change to a wiser job or more artistic or wise input to media, maybe see oneself as older if one is wise, or move to another local culture, loan wise books from library, play by oneself some fine songs, go for a walk with nature and weather, let people have a break from each other's too close company and associate more loosely from now on, trying to see where each one belongs and follow the rule "Live and let others live!" )



Hei tonttu ukot hyppikää




Ei tippa tapa


A drnking song but it could be more like a song about the wisdom of following feelings 

"A drop does not kill one, and one does not drown in a bucket. 

When one has started, let's continue."
