Childs dreams of a would-be profession
Every child has his/her dreams as to the would-be profession. Some girls dream of becoming ballerinas and boys dream of the profession of cosmonauts. But should we take the fruits of the rich childs imagination seriously?

Pros and cons of becoming a circus actor
Parents rarely take it serious if their child is going to become a singer or something of the kind. Imagine that a boy has got intention to become a circus actor. Everyone is going to make fun of it. Later when it becomes not funny at all, parents are going to moralize.
The profession of a circus actor is full of challenges and deprivations.
the circus becomes an only home;
the home is constantly removing from one place to another;
the actor has no free time at all: circus is his/her job, hobby and destiny.
Coming to the show everyone is going to relax and get pleasure. But at the same time it is somebodys daily routine. Moving from one place to another, playing tricks with the audience, an actor may be sick and tired of it. But he/she actually has no place to go, being separated from the rest of the world, having chosen this profession.
Surely, this profession has a lot of advantages as well. Like any other art it brings satisfaction. Nothing can be compared to the feeling hat the actor has listening to the audience applauding after a successful action. It opens plenty of opportunities for self-realization.
The circus is rather a destiny than a career. As a rule the circus actors find their love in their troupe and bring up children inside of the circus.
