Titbits 35: Coffee Beans..

Have you ever experienced certain scenarios getting blown out of proportions mainly due to residual emotions that people carry in their conversations? These act as accelerators or magnifiers – in a negative way. So, for example, you had an argument with your kid or spouse before leaving your home and someone cuts you across on the road while you are driving, you tend to lose your cool a lot more quickly that you otherwise would.

What we need at such times are coffee beans. Well, not in literal sense, of course. Just like the smell of beans neutralize your olfactory senses when you are testing perfumes, you need something that neutralizes your residue of negative emotions. Good old Hindi songs are my coffee beans…What are yours?
