Thank you for your concern. You are right. I allowed myself to respond personally, “being weary of being talked down to”. That is just Umair’s way. I respect him greatly. He is very intelligent, but to hear him say he will teach me a word that explains all our problems seems to be a bit condescending. I suppose I have overdosed on the pessimism that speaks only to what is wrong without offering hope for sollutions. I am a positive person, feeling that every problem has solutions, and of those possibilities, there is a best path to follow. I fail to agree that we are doomed.

If these thoughts and feelings indicate to you I have a psychological problem, perhaps if you knew me better you could be less judgemental regarding my psychological stability. Me thinks you may presume a little too much.
Neither I nor you have all the answers, and we can all benefit from good advice. I am avoiding being offended by your presuming I have a psychological illness based upon my daring to criticize the intelligence of Umair, a man I sincerely admire.

Again, I thank you for your concern about my mental health, and I wish you well.
