My Laughing Side – The Clown’s Prayer

Nafis Light

The Clown’s Prayer,
A prayer whose author is unknown
but is used by various comedians for inspiration;
Somehow...it feels like even once a day helps
not motivation...but a symbolic word is ‘revolution’.

 

At The Clown’s Church in London,
A version of The Clown’s Prayer is recited during an annual service
on the first Sunday in February by Clowns International
It is to honour deceased clowns and is attended by clowns in full contume;
Something like that for the clowns...it is quite special.

With Love,
Joker44

    Yes, OK with nice clowns. But it's sinister with the nasty clowns at times, and as Halloween approaches.

      The next two posts will be about Clowns and the last one will be related to the 'nasty' ones.

      • ANGELA & BRIAN

        Thanks for sharing JOKER ! Angela & I have always loved CLOWNS & Circuses ever since we were taken as KIDS. Its a PITY they have got a bad press in the 21st Century. In our opinion they are harmless and are prepared to make FOOLS of THEMSELVES to make other laff ! Angela loves to go to fancy dress Parties as a classical white faced clown ~ with a teardrop. She looks very MELANCHOLOY ! We have met CHRISTIAN CLOWNS and they always remind us that Christians are exhorted to be CLOWNS (buffoons) for CHRISTS SAKE ~ AMEN ! Thnaks for the CLOWNS PRAYER and EXPLANATION ! I will share it @ Church next time we have an OPEN MIKE ! We love the last line implying *When a CLOWN make People laff & smile at his antics ~ it makes |GOD IN HEAVEN ~ SMILE TOO ! JOY (Hapiness) is a FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT ! WE need more JOY & Laughter in some of CHURCHES. WE use the American BIG MOUTH PUPPETS in our Church once a MONTH @ the Family Service ~ everybody loves them & everybody smiles ~ AMEN !

        BLESSINGS & PEACE to your & Yours
        Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
