Answer: The reason for this is because the force of an earthquake is proportional to a structure's mass, the high strength-to-weight ratio of wood allows the material to survive seismic activity much better than brick. Wood is lightweight and flexible material compared to bricked houses, wood is better in earthquake prone areas.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: it can help you (if you observe well) 1) to get to know yourself better, 2) recognize relating patterns adquired from your own family, 3) leave infantile approach to relationships (we all have tendency to look for someone who will unconditionally satisfy our needs and our ego requirements) and learn to relate as adult (respecting, i.e. respect frontiers of the other and require respect, i.e. learn the other respect your boundaries), 4) leave childish, infantile dependency and become responsible for the kind of relationships we make.
