Its All in the Mind!

The last week has been a week which has sprung more questions than it has given answers for all the Blue Caramel offices be it Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur or even Mumbai.

Post a change of guards in Blue Caramel-Jodhpur, Santosh is still in a learning phase with Manish proving to be an adequate mentor. Sanjay's tryst at Blue Caramel-Jaipur has just began and Suheil and Mehul's foray in the Education institutions of Udaipur, has been the high point of an otherwise dismal week for Blue Caramel-Udaipur.In Mumbai, Blue Caramel is contemplating using the services of Supritta, who might turn out to be the star-writer, that we have been looking forward for quite a time now.

The informal "Siesta" discussions have had a hiatus, for now, but the flow of discussions have not stopped. The wide range of discussions this week have touched topics like "The existence of God", "Evolution of  Mankind" and "Ghosts and creations of the mind". The last of these topics, brings me to a phrase that my father uses quite regularly, which is "Its All in the Mind!"

Its All in the Mind actually connotes the amazing power a human mind has to Make or Break aspirations, happiness, success and general well being. On one hand, a handicapped person, by putting his mind over body can scale the highest of mountain peaks and on the other an able bodied person might be earning his living by begging. Similarly, a person might be creating history by learning from past mistakes and on the other hand another person maybe fretting away his life by living with cobwebs of the past. 

Our lives are very precious and it is envisaged at Blue Caramel that all the Blue Caramelers sprint ahead in life overcoming hurdles and become champions of success, because as Bill Gates once said " Being born poor is not a crime, but dying poor, certainly is". So, lets all not brood over the happenings of the past and try to rock away to glory because life is too short to live only in the past and time and tide wait for none!
