The eyes of the Clown

The eyes of the Clown There are quite a few miracles of life, God knows. I think that maybe the circus is one of them. We pay our money, brace for boredom, and are bombarded by noise, enchanted by the beauty, amazed once again by the elephants, they are smaller each year. But what happens when we entered the tent. If you permit, you retu to the hopes and dreams long delivered the hope that something might happen to wonderful dreams that happen to us, perhaps the biggest miracle now.Clowns are working in all this. There is a vision in the eyes of the clown who sees the world just washed in the moing the dream, the vision of a road to the yolk, excuse the dark past and seems only. Plugs are the circus clowns that can be hung on hooks where the magic begins, the sight of God to find our soul and to encourage people who may be. Clown tell us - if we want to hear - something wonderful that can happen, here, here, right now.It is easy to forget the clown - staining and bracelets, rubber nose, feet, like ducks, fancy clothes. Perhaps the most comfortable clown to miss, because the mirror of ourselves, stripped of pretension, stripped of protection. Not with all our feelings dangling naked. There - that tear, that laugh, that sigh - do not hide that, says the clown. To come. Let it happen. Be.The clown who takes the risk, in the first place, but leave the rest of the magic is up to us. We can be real, you can make known our pain, our need, our joy, our strength. If you let the magic really can happen, here, here, now. And this is the greatest miracle of all, God knows.
