I have sometimes liked to watch and listen to a video of Julio Iglesias singing Me odvide vivir(?) on a fine atmospheric stadion concert which seems to be in Argentina. It is the atmosphere of a tropical evening experienced finely intertwined with the song which in a way tells of how fine to live such evenings. I do not understand the words, but the song appears to be of the subject "I forgot to live" while making art or writing fine things, something great like "the soul of the century", and what it was motivated from a younger person's point of view, but somehow the supposed everydsy life got dropped away, the level of experience and motivation, left only flat words. So I do not quite know why I have listened to it so many times, and I have long thought that the song is somehow about "I forgot to do else and was left watching a video".
So when I a moment ago changed to watchibg and listening to the Finnish song Veteraanin iltahuuto, War veteran's evening call, I was relieved to reach something handling real life, yet was kkbd of still in the aluenated Argentinan poibt of view wondering what is it, what do you mean by life, is such still possible in today's world. The Finnish song tells of life with the weathers in thus northern climate, so as it asks for the children to remember the cultural inheritagd's wisdom when the grandparents no longer are present, it in a way worries about such things in the whole world. If there is a small place with charm in it's ways of living, values, life choices, has it's own wisdom of life. Who will continue it when some time comes to it's end? Will the grandchildren and other children remember, will they have places that they love, jobs that are good in the world, healthy natural ages old life, like learning from the nature? Will they have wisdom that is in a way universal and ages old, wise objective views with ways of living getting strenght and wisdom from the local nature environment and the local traditional culture's charm, and something valuable of it to give as a present, a piece of wisdom to share with the wide world too. And will the ages old nature, for example the elements refresh that wisdom so ghst it is born agakn when needed, wise and fitting the times, wiser than humans alone would have been.
