My Comforting Clown Family

May 2, 2023
By Anonymous

Everyone hates clowns.

I never could.


They gave me peace.

They gave me family.

They taught me it’s okay to be me and it’s okay to be crazy.

They taught me I’m important and to put myself first.

They taught me to stick up for myself and to be careful for predators.

They taught me to pursue my dreams and never let anyone get in my way. 

They taught me to never be ashamed of what I love.


They made me who I am.


They love me. 

They cared when no one else did.


Clowns are the ultimate comfort

Clowns are MY ultimate comfort.
