We feel some outlandish stuff all the time, and some of it is based on a stupid mistake or misinterpreted.
The tendency towards balance has returned to the conviction that neither the exclusive favoring of feelings nor of reason is the way, but that it takes the cooperation of clown and mind to get through life reasonably healthy.
The fact that we decide with our feelings and not with our intellect explains why most advice books don't work: They don't change how you feel.
There is no all-balancing justice in the world and the clown is just trying to solve a cute cognitive dissonance.
