The people think, that they laugh at the clown, but do they really laugh at the clown?


You laugh at the clown, but at whom the clown laughs? 

The clown was not always this goofy character in the circus. Do we really know what his goofy laughing face, made of white make up, actually show us? We see the clown laughing, all the time, and we take it for granted, but what we do not see, is that some time the clown is laughing because he is happy, other times the clown is laughing on the stage even trough his tears. In the beginning, the clown was part of the noble yard, in the castle of the nobles and king, in Medieval Europe. The clown played a regulating role how the kingdom goes. He was in very good position to do so, because the clown was able to freely go with people and mix with them and see and hear what people say, and go to the noble yard and see and hear all the nobles, at his convenience, simply because he wants to do so. This made the clown the most informed person in the kingdom. The Wise king, listen to his clown, the stupid king decapitates his clown. With time stupid and dishonest politicians put the clown in the circus to laugh at him. But at whom they laugh? The clown? The clown shows them their mistakes, by making a fool of him self. This is how the clown turns the defect into effect. What the clown does not show us? His face. His face is in the backstage, some times, between his palms, some times not, but always showing the clown's true emotion in the triple make up mirror. Can you see a clown on the street? Only a clown can see another clown on the street and recognize it as such. For the rest of us, the clown is simply one of us. Now we can conclude at whom the clown laughs at, even being put there there in the circus. This raises one more question. People think, that they laugh at the clown, but do they really laugh at the clown?
