And I think it is just a coping mechanism I developed. My dad used to scold my mom a lot primarily for that reason - saying she is stupid and not intelligent and dumb. And I remember my father scolding me a lot on that basis also when I was a child.. And I think I must have figured that to escape his wrath, I better be smart. And besides, almost all along I was all alone, so had nothing else to do other than my brain to play with. So I started it as a hobby - to just think about things and understand things. And it actually helped me deal with the emotional mess a lot of times.
