Savonlinnassa asuessani opin mm, että savonlinnalaiset kutomispuikot ovat savonlinnalausen tyyliset, jotenkin igan mukavat käsitöihin, mutta helsinkiläiset puikkoni, vaikka ensi alkuun näyttivät ihan samoilta, olivat ikävän terävät yms kutomista häiritsevää. Vastaavasti langat olivat myös paikkakjnnan ilmaston ja kulttuurin mukaiset. Se kai pätee tuotteisiin laajemminkin, mm ruokaan, vaatteisiin ja huonekaluihin. Tietyllä paikkakunnalla oletetaan asiat tehtävän ja elämä elettävän, yhteiskunnan sujuvuudesta huolwhdittavan tietyllä tavalla, jota määrää suuresti se, mihinammattialoihin seutu on erityisen paljon suuntautunut, ja mitkä ovat sen päävetovoimatekijät ym vahvat piirteet, esim onko meren rannalla tai lähellä valtakunnan rajaa, tietyn srudun duuri keskys vai syrjemmällä maalaispaikkakunta. Joka tapauksessa elämänmenl ja seudun tuotteet olettavat, että pääammattialojen perustaidot ym niiden perusvaatimukset, esim arvot, rauha tietyille asioille, niiden viehätyksen tunnistaminen ja mieluusti sen suurezti arvostaminen, ja noihkn ammatteihkn soveltuvuuden vaaliminen myös muiden osalta, ovat kaikkuen koko ajan itsenäisesti kulttuurin mukaan huolehdittavia asipita, joiden varassa elämä seudulla pyörii. Jos siis ostat mummolamaiselta paikkakjnnalta tuotteen, joka olettaa, että kaikki on tehtävä kivasti ja että niin on tehtykin, niin jos käytät tuotetta akateemisella paikkakjnnalla, niin sinun on arvioitava kaikki itse uudelleen, eli mikä kelpaa y.päristössä ja mikä ei ja miten sellaiset asiat akateemisen sivistyksen mukaan huolehditaan.

30th of October 2023 When I lived in Savonlinna in eastern Finland, I liked very much the major attractions of the area, so I liked also what the shops sold and how the locals arranged many things, since the town was really arts oriented, around summer cottages, in tge town grandparents' homes, etc etc. So I for the first time understood the point of view which asks "What is the role here?" or the like and causes a huge lack of luck if you do not have any idea of such, which is typical for Finnish speaking Finnish culture. So the quedtion is something like "What is this place build for,meant for, for which sreas of lufe, for what kinds of things?", so if you are such a person, along those lines in your lufe as one of your major dreams in life, for example liking such a profession in the future, then I guess you are along those lines, your type of persons have a place, a "role", there, and so the shops, town's ways, values in the environment and the culture with it's skills, values and ways of living is lijely to fit together with your life, but otherwise maybe not. So it is not an acted role, not the role of some other place or culture and not a lie, it isn't like an official document, instead it just tells whether you are along the lines of lufe there, along the professions, along what the place is suited to, etc.
Some seem to tjink that if you keep company to your envitonment, you have a role, you are kind of quaranteed to behave always well, be good for the world and do better quality work & other influencing than those who do not keep company. But usually that is not so. People who need emotional support and get well along with each other, tend to keep company to each other, but that does not quarantee them being good, wise and responsible toward the rest of the world or toward the more indovidual and more skilled often more moral ones.
As far as I have understood, a role allowing living in Finland and influencing tvings would be having Finnish weather skills, following objective rationality with pictures of wholes and having healthy wisdom of life, and seeking to make the world a good place to live in for all fairly, now and in the future. It usually also means following civiliced wisdom with common sense and responsibly in important matters. Healthy spirit in things done, arrangements made, ways of doing chosen, etc is also considered important. In Finland Finnish speaking Finns are the traditional inhabitants, but Finnish speaking Finnish ways also suit the place, are according to wise views and wisdom of life and Finnish speaking Finnish cultures cultivates strenghts which flourish just in Finland and are good to have in the world, and Finnish speaking Finnish culture seeks to be fair and responsible toward all in the world. The Swedish speaking Finns copy their cultural ways from Sweden and are unfair toward Finnish speaking Finnish culture, so that is a different culture and must be estimated separately.
