The Circus of suffering

GUIDELINES FOR CRYING.

First guideline: look for a sad memory.
If you don’t have one, leave, you’ll not be able to cry.

Second guideline: read a sad poem.
If you don’t feel a lump in the throat, leave, you’ll not be able to cry.

Third guideline: imagine the day of your dead.
If you feel immortal, leave, you’ll not be able to cry.

Fourth guideline (only when the other three has failed)
Cry because you have abandoned all hope of crying.
