Ventriloquism

Yesterday, when I was busy with 'The Plan', I found the potential for developing new talent, Ventriloquism. Somehow, I was able to simultaneously play 'Me' and my stupid 'Brain'. I mean, I found this great, extraordinary. I imagined myself performing as a ventriloquist in front of a stage. I felt so proud.

Then, I looked at the puppet in my hands, oh my goodness! It's the model of a human brain. Suddenly, I realised what sort of a nightmare I would be. He is the man who carries a human brain. Kids would not even want me at Halloween. I was terrified. Finally, when I googled it, I found the profession undermined in my country. So, I left the plan to die. It was a great plan, though. Hearing this my ever encouraging, most optimistic mind jumped into the scene.

"That's funny. I think you should become a standup comedian."

It was a new idea for my future. I was so happy. But then I thought, "It is such a great idea, buddy. But I think I lack the looks for it."

As always,

Brain: "No way, you are the perfect clown."

That's thousand and one.
