All my close friends and many colleagues know how much I love the joke about the bear. Let me remind him:
“A bear is walking through the forest. He sees - Zhiguli are on fire. He got into a Zhiguli and burned down."
Many say that he is not funny at all, stupid, etc., they look with an intelligent air and do not understand anything, and some laugh and do not know themselves for what reason. BUT.. I will say that this is a wonderful deeply philosophical anecdote - a parable, which was invented by some genius of subtle metaphors.
Why is this anecdote so sunk into my soul? What is he talking about?
In this article I will tell you about it, I will try to convey its depth and "subtlety", perhaps it will also sink into your soul:).
And so, this anecdote about addictive behavior, about addictions.
The bear is addicted to Zhiguli. He only sees the fire, and can no longer restrain himself. As a result, he cannot stand it, gets into the car, it seems as if he realizes that he will burn (I’ll fantasize a little), but, nevertheless, he sits down and burns out.
It’s like in codependent relationships, it’s like you “burn” in them, but you cannot free yourself, you only free yourself when you “burn out”, it’s like merging and separation at the same time, such a deep suicidal retroflection … mm.. how juicy it sounds, right?
Or, some kind of chemical addiction, heroin, for example "Zhiguli". It affects all spheres, and on "body", and on "emotions" and "spirit". All three areas suffer, and the circle of addictive behavior is closed. The bear sees a Zhiguli, and is unable to restrain himself. His body aches, his spirit is broken, but inside there is fear (for example, endure this pain forever), loneliness (only a Zhiguli can drown him and keep him company), and powerlessness (he cannot withstand these circumstances of life, he is powerless against them), therefore he again and again sits in a Zhiguli and burns down.
Further, this anecdote, depending on the context, can be continued and instilled in him a positive and hopeful.
Perhaps the bear of grief, still found the strength to get out of the Zhiguli, separate and move on. Perhaps, having gone out, he bathed in a healing lake, and his fur grew back, and he lived on enjoying life without a Zhiguli. Anything can happen in the life of a bear:)
Further, this anecdote is about the inexorable fate of fate.
In life, there may be such circumstances that otherwise, well, nothing can be done, only you can sit down and burn out. For example, I need to go to a meeting ("get into a Zhiguli") and "burn" from the views of the commission rummaging in my documents, and it is likely that I will "burn out". Or, an even more everyday example. Perhaps, many will disagree with me, of course … But still, my husband and I lived and decided that they wanted to replenish our family, to become wider. So I walk in the end, pregnant, and I understand very clearly that I got into the Zhiguli and “burn” right now. And I kind of understood that it probably looks like a "burning Lada", but I made up my mind. As a result, in childbirth I broke my tailbone (“it burned out”), and my life turned upside down a lot (“it did burn out”), but the wool is slowly growing back, and life is getting better, and the result of burning in a Zhiguli was worth it:).
Further, this anecdote is about suddenness and everyday foolishness.
Here was an inexperienced bear walking through the forest, does not look under its paws, stumbles, loses direction and suddenly sees a burning Zhiguli. He didn't know what it was or how, but it looked pretty nice. The bear had no experience of how to burn in a Zhiguli, so he just sat down, and alas.. burned out.. It is quite possible out of shame:).
In life, we, too, quite often "burn out" somewhere out of inexperience. Either we “burn out” from the suddenness of the circumstances that had piled on us, simply because we were not ready for them, did not see that the “Zhiguli were burning”, or they suddenly caught fire, and we “burn out” like a bear.
Further, this anecdote about heroes - (dash) - victims.
Karpman's triangle: victim - rescuer - pursuer.
Of course, there are heroes who voluntarily sacrifice everything and “burn out” in Zhiguli. Perhaps “causing” good at this moment, perhaps simply “the Russian woman will take it out of the burning hut” … But, nevertheless, the result is the same - the bear was burnt. This triangle pisses me off so much that I don't even want to write much about it.
And finally, this anecdote about unbridled passion and first love.
A bear walked through the forest, sees a Zhiguli burning, this is a fire of passion, a fire of unrestrained love, he was ready for anything for her, he sat in it and burned out from this fire of unrestrained passion.
This often happens in life: sex, drugs, rock and roll / bear, fire, burned out in a Zhiguli:).
+ a fine line to addictive relationships, and addictive behavior, but … now I'm in the mood for a romantic note;).
And finally parable:
We all have circumstances in life when we are forced to "sit in a Zhiguli and burn out," even realizing that the end may well happen; but in the end, there may be a different result: someone will not understand us, someone will consider it not “funny”, someone will be “stupid”, someone will laugh and will not understand why, and someone, perhaps, will remember our act is sooo long, and we proudly tell people about it, as I am now telling you this beautiful anecdote about a bear that got into a Zhiguli and burned down, but conversations and memory of him will fly around us in the air for many years:).
That's all, those who read.
Good mood, and "bearish" pleasures to you;).
