One response to “Ka – 3”
I love the wholesome introductory sentences. I've started wondering if every being on our planet has uniquely specific needs like that. I think mine would be "This is Kresny. Give him purpose, keep him company and he will be fine".
I could finish right here, but I'm biased in this topic, as I study Nonviolent Communication. On the topic of needs, I… need to mention the 9 basic human needs in NVC. Here's a list I made based on Manfred Max-Neef's research:
1. Sustenance (home)
2. Safety (protection)
3. Love (care)
4. Empathy (understanding, acceptance, respect)
5. Rest (recreation)
6. Community (belonging)
7. Creativity (self-expression)
8. Autonomy (freedom)
9. Meaning (contribution to life)
And that means every single human being has these exact needs, nothing more, nothing less. All violence is the sign of unmet needs, also nothing more, nothing less.
But some have more or less need for each. In my case, I don't feel the need for love when I have company and when I'm following a purpose.
