Our needs are few..food in our belly. clothes on our backs and shelter in inclement weather...all other things are wants and desires

I want and desire a good man in my life. Everyone is going
to get so tired of me repeating this, but I am just being
honest.
With a day such as the one we are experiencing today, that
nice warm cuddling would be quite awesome. hug cold

Those are our survival needs...we have emotional needs as well. It's part of the human condition to need a mate and friends. Maslow's hierarchy is pretty accurate.

Understood, my dear lady. Never feel that we don't understand and that you can't express that need here. We all share it, or we wouldn't be here...except those who found it, and just love to chat. May we all share in that blessing some day.

hug

Hey Wind,

Maslow's hierarchy of needs (read from the bottom up) is pretty interesting.

Self-actualization
...Truth
...Justice
...Wisdom
...Meaning

Esteem Needs
...Self-respect
...Achievement
...Attention
...Recognition
...Reputation

Social Needs
...Friendship
...Belonging to a group
...Giving and receiving love

Safety Needs
...Living in a safe area
...Medical access
...Job security
...Adequate finances

Physiological Needs
...Air
...Water
...Food
...Sleep

His theory is that the needs must be satisfied starting from the bottom of the hierarchy in order for us to be able to even start to think about accomplishing the ones above

All true within the structure of society but when u spend great lengths of time away frm it...literally..u discover that survival is the formost concern and with out it Maslow's theory is but filling in the pie.

I hear what you are saying but I think the self-actualization is a biggie (not that you are saying it is not). I think one is more likely to fulfil the self-actualization when away from society ironically.

Wow, shades of Robert Louis Stevenson:

"Wealth I ask not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me.

All I ask, the heaven above,
And the road below me."


...I've heard it said that all we really to be happy in life is something to do, someone to love and something to hope for.

Well, I fill out and send in every junk mail sweepstakes doohickey that comes in the mail and that gives me something to do. I found a wonderful lady right here on CS and that gives me someone to love. And I hope like heck I eventually win about 10 million of Publisher's Clearinghouse's bucks... So between junk mail, and a good marriage, everything else is icing on the cake!

thumbs up

Now you are saying the truth here, amen to that. Us humans however have got such a thing as wants and they take priority now I want and I want. We are so lucky that we were not born in the 3rd World and have to starve day in and day out and die from horrible disease due to dirty water. I am grateful for the little things in life since have been to the 3rd world and its not a nice place. Well said nice one. Best wishespeace
