Often people say they want to be free, but something constantly interferes. At first they choose the wrong job, then the wrong person. And everything goes one to one. Of course, it’s hard for them to help. It is only in our power to name the lack of freedom that reigns in society. Today we are sorting it, fetters - what is it?
Value
The object of study is easily found in the explanatory dictionary. From our indispensable companion we learn that the word has three meanings:
- A rope or belt used to tighten an animal’s legs to limit freedom of movement.
- Rope, belts, tightening the body of a prisoner, a prisoner.
- What fetters, enslaves, imprisons.
The second value is currently considered obsolete. If we turn to linguistic practice, then people in general at the moment rarely use the word "puts" in everyday speech. A prosperous Russian sees prisoners only on TV or in Hollywood action films, and even there the freedom of prisoners is usually limited to handcuffs, not to ropes and belts. However, we are still able to explain what the "bonds" are. So, the word is not completely forgotten by us.
Synonyms
Let's move on to semantic analogues to consolidate success. In addition, this is one of the effective ways to remember the meaning of the new definition. So the list is as follows:
- ropes;
- belts;
- Networks
- fetter;
- bonds.
The first thing that catches your eye is the figurativeness of synonyms for the meaning of the word "put". In other words, semantic substitutions themselves set up a person in a poetic and even metaphysical way, unless he is lying in the basement hand and foot. Then, of course, what kind of metaphysics is there ?! Especially cynical comrades can see some irony in synonymy. In particular, the fact that bonds are bonds. But bonds are an ambivalent word, that is, it can be interpreted both in a positive and in a negative sense. Moreover, the first method of interpretation is more common. Still, it is good that few people remember shackles when they think about bonds.
Is work a field of realization or a bond?
Probably, this topic is tired of everything, but it begs it. And the question is very simple: is work a bond? Now almost everyone is talking about two things: on the one hand, there is a certain self-realization of a person, the thought of which haunts many, on the other, its impossibility, since a person is afraid to change his job, which does not bring satisfaction. The tension generated by this contradiction provokes depression. Man cannot get out and gain freedom. Is there a way out of this vice? Yes, and it's pretty simple. If it seems to a person that he can write novels, paintings or work with wood, then as a trial balloon he should create something without risking his main income. If the result satisfies it, then a person, exhausted by the realization of his own potentials, can look for a way to make a hobby a permanent job. By the way, this is a fairly common technique when a man or woman changes the scope of their own efforts. They rarely say goodbye to old work right away, usually it is a long and gradual process, of course, if there are no extreme situations.
And yes, we must remember that from time to time, any work seems a burden. It is impossible to endow, for example, the sphere of creativity with magical power, otherwise actors, artists and writers would be the happiest people in the world. Practice shows that this is far from the case. It is important to find a job that would not cause a feeling of locked abilities and utter longing, but you should not expect exorbitant pleasure from work, this, they say, is not addressed.
To summarize, let’s say: bonds are even good when they play the role of restraints, because only by overcoming something, we understand what we are worth, if, of course, we are worth at least something.
