The Clown


Every day he paints his face with happy colors, dresses up with cheerful clothes to make them laugh, to make them forget about their sorrows for a while or maybe forever. His greatest achievement was to draw smiles on every lip, to make eyes sparkle with joy. His mission was never easy, but he never gave up… It was his life’s goal and his every day task, though… he never felt bored. He never gave himself the chance to control his life, he never owned it… it was other’s property, it was part of theirs. He didn’t know how to think about himself, he never knew whether he was happy or not, he didn’t have the time luxury to stop and think. Suddenly, he discovered he was The Clown, the unhappy clown who used to make everyone happy but himself!

While reading "The Clown", I linked it with our real life! You're stuck in a daily cycle trying to please everyone at work, home, but alot of times, we don't really think if what we're doing really makes us happy! May be it's only a duty :(
