Circus


The other day, I went to see a ‘circus’ with my friend and her mother. It was said to be ‘World Best’ and I got some good thinking from it ka.

The image I always have on my mind was the circus from my childhood years when my father took me to several. My attention was on the funny clowns, amazing trained animals, and exciting performances of acrobats. All seemed to be real colorful and magical.

This time, it wasn’t like what I expected. It was more sophisticated, I think, to come up with a story from the beginning to the end. While I was watching the circus, I couldn’t help thinking of the human skills especially the acrobats! Yet, I also came up with these questions/comments ka:

·         Most of the performances were dark and dim. The music didn’t sound cheerful! Where were all the colors gone and what about the lively sound of music?

·         The slower pace of most of the shows may not respond well to our current world of changes.

·         As I didn’t hear kids’ laughing that much, what happened to the clowns who used to be the life of the circus? ‘Circus’ must have changed its definition and it may not be for kids anymore. Or I must have been amazed by the show of trained animals then!

·         Technology has brought excitement to our eyes through various channels and ‘live’ shows might have decreased their charms?!?

·         I must definitely be trapped in the hi-speed world!

·         The circus could eventually disappear?!?

Even with all the above, I deeply admire human physical strengths, individual persistence, and team efforts to push to the limits of their potentials ka!
