Difference between Cc and Bcc in an Email

It's exiting to learn something new everyday. Over 100 Billion emails are sent and received every day. But, many of us have no idea of what is Cc and Bcc which we use in email for day-to-day and Business conversations.
Cc stands for Carbon Copy.
Bcc stands for Blind Carbon Copy.
Carbon Copy is the term which is used when we duplicate any original data. This is the reason we ask "Carbon Paper" for the Blue Ink paper which is bought in Stationery for duplicating any receipts or mutual agreements.

When you compose any email there are totally five fields you need to be aware of.
1. To - Email of the intended Person(s) you would like to send the message.
2. Cc - Email of other Person(s) for reference. 
3. Bcc - Email of other Person(s) for reference. 
4. Subject - Three to four word summary of what the email is all about.
5. Body - Message area. 

Whole email is shared to the persons listed in To, Cc and Bcc sections but the one who is listed in To and Cc has no idea of who is listed in Bcc. That is the reason it is Blind Carbon Copy. If there are multiple persons listed in Bcc, Even they will not know if anyone else is also listed in Bcc. Though the persons in Bcc cannot see others who are in Bcc, they can clearly figure out the list in To and Cc.

Question - Answer

For every question in this universe, there exists an answer. Both question and answer are bonded. For example, Sunrise and Sunset OR Day and Night OR Light and Dark. You can observe in these examples that one doesn't exist without other. Same is the case with question and answer.

How can we tackle the situation when we end up with a stringent question. A proverb in Telugu says, 
             "Prashna lone badulu undi gurtu patte gundeni adugu"
It simply means, when u keep on thinking about the question you are struck, with an intent to resolve it. You will land somewhere near to a solution which comes out from the question itself. If it doesn't happen again keep iterating the same process. If you can truly wander for a solution, for the question posed to you, answer never hides from any corner of your brain. It senses you. There is no need of any external help to get you out of any situation (Question), it needs a dedicated personality residing inside you to set things right (Answer).
