For a while I secretly believed that clowns knew they were scary. I thought
they were trying to be funny because they really were scary. That seemed
irrational to everybody. It made more sense to me when I understood what being an empath meant.
The first clown I saw was scary. More and more I believe that there was a reason to be scared of that clown. At six, I didn’t understand it might just be that one clown. All the clowns, even clown dolls were heaped together in my mind. Now, thankfully I have recognized that not all clowns are the same.
Moral of that story: If I hadn’t let all clowns off my first clown hook I’d have missed the performances of Cirque d’Soleil. I’d have missed Patch Adams.
