The best comedies are comedies that tell us the truth about ourselves. The funniest comedic situations mirror an authentic part of ourselves we often try to hide. Because comedians highlight the most quirky and unique traits of the way we look, and communicate, the best comedians usually are expert mimics or impersonators.
When expertly done, impersonations have an uncanny way of reflecting our often peculiar and uniquely characteristic way we communicate. Impersonations usually reveal elements of truth about ourselves that we may begrudgingly admit to.
Comedy restores a sensible and balanced view of ourselves and our human condition. A hearty balanced view of yourself allows you to be more authentic. It is inferred that the common denominator between the human race is our struggle and need to overcome life unexpectances, foibles and disappointments. Comedians humorously keep us humble and true to ourselves, to each other while uniting us in a collective understanding that none of us have reached perfection or normalcy, however defined.
If laughter is the best medicine you can take, then many of us need it in large doses. Daily annoyances can weigh us down, and become unchecked stress in out daily routine. The recognition that our predicament is not that different from our neighbors just may be the gift that comedy shares with us. That recognition is sometimes all that is needed to maintain our resolve to continue on and see ourselves in harmony with everyone else, instead of the isolation that often accompanies such a negative view that we are alone in our hardship.
With the ability to see ourselves in the characters that often play out in comedic theater, we compare ourselves, as we discern the measure of truth intrinsically layered in its absurdity. They serve as mirrors to our often inept attempts to take on life's struggles and deal with personal grievances.
In well known US comedic cartoon, Bugs Bunny, a carrot munching rabbit always seems to dodge the trigger finger of determined Elmer Fudd, his rabbit hunting archenemy. In various scenarios, the resourceful rabbit dodges dim witted Fudd in seemingly impossible circumstances. Bugs predicament mimics our own, as we too dodge various problems and enemies in our own lives. Watching Bugs humorously escape various mishaps, we too, vicariously escape and deep down edge us on to press forward in the daily grind.
The subconscious message received is that there is usually a solution and a way out of common frustrations and we to are smart and can face our stalking, hunting challenges. If we can see it being done then we can certainly see it done in our own lives. If personal victories can be visualized first, then it is hopeful that our personal victories will be reality.
The best comedies help us to see ourselves authentically, deter stress and even ignite our ability to see our way out of difficult situations. Comedies help us to put life in its proper perspective and help us realize that we are all a part of the human condition and not alone.
