Be A Clown

ASSALAMU`ALAIKUM WARAHMATULLAH

We sometimes feel ourselves inferior compared to those around. There's nothing wrong with this feeling. I bet, even Gustav Klimt had it. I would even declare, it is a clandestine phenomenon meant to motivate us.

First thing first; who has the power to decide whom is more inferior than you? Yep, you. Next; who has to decide what rubric are you using in labeling them? Again, none other but you. If then--if you accept these two arguments--whom should be blamed when you are placed at lower station? Your neighbor? The concerned people? Your pet? No. You.

Sometimes, it is important to be feeling small and petite. To be directed and be laughed. It is a good classroom to understand yourself; what you lack and what you have which no other person has. At times, try to be foolish (in a good way, though). Open your heart to all criticisms and you will learn why you should not do it again. 

Be a clown. Be a very good clown. Be looked small and make them feel small instead, with the showmanship of your acts and habits. Prove to them that even clown can do the very best. Oh I am so excited to be one, right now.

Wassalaam.
