Adventure 1: The circus

So yesterday I went to a Circus. This was a Thursday, and Wednesday I had woken up at 5pm, on the day of the circus I woke up at 6am after working at my favorite place in the world (more about that later). So it can be assumed that I was like the living dead. But I still went. So this is what I learned. We got there and there where protesters in front of the AmwayCenter in Orlando. Because the Ringling Bros, had animals in there show, elephants, dogs, cats, and BIG cats too. I felt kind of horrible because I was once one of those protesters and now I was going to see animals working for a fruit. And I thought, why do we humans feel the need to control everything. Why do we want to feel like we are the only ones who can think and feel. Our need to make everything work for us. And was disgusted by the thought. But wait, we humans do this to our selves too, all the time. Our racism and our neoslavery and neocolonialism is nothing new or different from what we see in the rings. We do exactly the same thing to ourselves. And also, the circus is such a huge part of the american culture and its important too so many people. Especially the people working there, if that is something they love what would it be like to them to be denied to do what they love? About the animals, well I would like to think they treat them with respect or love, but we know how money ruins all the efforts of the the good people.

The second thing I learned is that the circus is not what it used to be. They have to change to keep up with the times but it used to be different. Really I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Its said that the circus was a center of ridicule, because they used to use humans as freaks and exploit them. And animals suffered a lot. But, what im referring to is not that, I mean the show, its more fancy now, we don't sit on cheap benches with the smell of manure inside of a huge red and white tent, eating cheap popcorn and sweating are buts off. Instead we are in fancy seats, with air conditioning looking down to small people twirling and twisting and driving motorcycles. That leaves no place for smaller company's too deliver a good show. Like everything in this world. Everything has to be big and fancy.

I know im rambling, this is nothing of what I planed to write but oh well. But apart from all the negatives that I never fail to point out the circus is awesome, and the talent and dedication that these people have is awesome. I had a great time. And its good that we can enjoy some classic and different events.
