Can Can and Cant Cant

 'Can Can' & 'Cant Cant' were identical twins. Their mother 'Mind' had trouble distinguishing them though she was the one who had given them birth. Sometimes without her knowledge Mind had fed one of them over again and had let the other starve. 

Can Can was always active and creative while Cant Cant was reactive and destructive. Can Can was positive whereas Cant Cant was negative. Where Can Can progressed a few yards, Cant Cant retarded a few miles and Mind had a tough time keeping pace with both.

One day, loaded with this growing knowledge of their behavioral patterns, Mind thought of feeding the twins with their right dosages and just once. 

She commanded the Twins to bring a plate so that she could serve food. Can Can brought one and while he was on his way Cant Cant spilled the food. 

Mind got upset. So she started shouting at Cant Cant. Then the Father 'Decide' interrupted and said, Mind there is no point in hitting Cant Cant now. You should have learnt earlier to feed Can Can first as Can Can could have had enough energy to support you. While doing so Cant Cant would've lost the energy needed to destroy and depress you.

Mind then came to her senses and told herself that she would first feed Can Can with the canned food called COMEPLAN

  1. Wonderfully spun story in the way you often could. Pun and literary twist intended and well knitted, the story should get into the books of management if it would :) (H)OR Licks if anyone thinks otherwise...
