| QUOTE OF THE MOMENT:
One must be frank to be relevant
Corazon Aquino
In 1986, Aquino became the first woman to be president of the Philippines, and for that TIME named her its Woman of the Year. A reluctant presidential candidate at the outset, Mrs. Aquino overcame the government's electoral intimidation and rampant fraud to be proclaimed the winner when the populace took to the streets and the defection of Marcos' own associates forced him to flee the country.
"Whatever else happens in her rule," said TIME, "Aquino has already given her country a bright, and inviolate, memory. More important, she has also resuscitated its sense of identity and pride." Despite repeated coup attempts and a mixed record of success, Corazon Aquino remained in office for more than six years. She was succeeded as president by longtime supporter Fidel Ramos when she did not seek reelection in 1992, and she retains her popularity with the Filipino people. TIME Person of the Year 2001 |

| I have learned in DISCOVERY Channel's GOT TO KNOW that the reason why we like good looking people for a partner is because we are designed to instinctively choose genes that are good for reproduction. Isn' t that neat? So it isn't really just vanity it has a scientific explanation to it. It was also found out in a study that we tend to pick or like people that look like us. Girls also tend to choose masculine men for protection and as a sign that the partner can provide for the offsprings. Of course in these very modern day we don't need all of that masculinity or very good looks. Also each person a good looking maybe inside the heart or it could be the wits, it really depends upon the each priorities.
The good thing is it further said is that our minds also are designed to know how to even out things with regards to our criteria and when we reach to that conclusion that that particular person in mind is the closest to what we want then we think it is a perfect match. It was even said that the more we interact with this prospect the more we learn about his/her personality and then we reach to a peak and thats when we decide to commit into marriage. Aside from that humans also have this fear of rejection so to protect one's self from that or to avoid it occuring we also know how to find a partner that are more or less our levels. We might not realize it but we are very honest inside to what we really are and what is just around our level or below or above us.
hmmmm what about the word love? Is that integrated to that too? Or could it be that is how we fall in love?
I will try to find the write up of this segment if I can for further details. |
