Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.
—[Psalm 42:5]
Like all man we curse the present
Feel so small and unimportant
But the future is always on your side
Mark the moment when you realize
have FAITH
{ FAITH is not working up by will-power a sort of certainty that something is coming to pass, but it is seeing as an actual fact that God has said that this thing shall come to pass…and rejoicing to know that it is true…and just RESTING because God has said it } Streams in the Desert
“Now FAITH is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we DO NOT SEE.” Hebrews 11:1
i never thought the Exposure Effect we learned in Psychology could be a factor in attraction. i guess this is related to the Subliminal Effect as well? but anyway. i dont think this works in every case. but 日久深情 is true, some times. just thought this was a pretty interesting thought..
Take a second and think about the one thing that promotes attraction the most. I’ll give you a hint. The answer is not physical looks, wealth, having things in common, or even the person’s personality. I know, it’s crazy right? The answer is actually proximity. Study after study finds that most people tend to become attracted to people who are physically close to them. The theory is called the mere exposure effect, and it states that we tend to become attracted to a novel stimuli if it was repeated over and over again. I am sure you once saw a very attractive person who caught your attention while passing by your car, then you never saw him/her again. Why do most people forget about that very attractive person a few days later? Simply because they never see that person again. If the stimuli wasn’t reinforced we tend to forget about it even if we liked it. It really is true. Just talking to someone a lot can do so much. You may not even see it coming. But If you spend a considerable amount of time with someone, you could be friends one day, and before you know it, you’ve completely fallen head over heals in love with each other. Maybe this has happened to you. You can’t fight it, but why would you want to? It’s a beautiful thing, really.
