Its a little hard to get the nuances of speech across this kind of forum...and I WAS distressed when I strated this thread, so I thought I MAY have inadvertantly said something derogatory...but i'm glad its all good.

And now that i've had a coffee, some positive affirmation from friends online that its not just me, i'm already more relaxed, and i'm sure we'll work through this.

Stay safe all.

P.S. Yours was question that always makes me think...do I consider myself middle eastern? hard to explain because I seem to be straddling the fence between 2 worlds, and don't 100% belong to either.
But in all honesty, i'm probably MORE Canadian than Middle Eastern...after all we are all a product of our enviroment ;)

Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?
