I've always thought it was interesting how they say that behind every clown lies a great sadness. Their facades is that of humor; even the clowns painted with the sad faces are considered funny. What thoughts reside in a true clown's mind as they perform their tricks and jokes; do they look for some temporary absolution to their pains in the smiles and laughter of the audience or are they merely maintaining the illusion that is so fragilely held together.
Do I make things in my life more difficult than it really is? Do I place another roadblock in my life with every introspective thought and every attempt to be a better person?
