"In a few hours, this crazy carnival that we’ve created together and shared with each other will be closing. The lights will dim, the carousel will slow down to a halt, the music will fade, the clowns and magicians will hang up their costumes, the animals will be led back to their cages…any perhaps some of the older animals will be led to pasture…and maybe a few in the carnival will pack their bags and travel to another place. And when the last child leaves, the carnival will close, and everything will be quiet."
