Human Needs

 

Human being have certain general needs. Scholars find the subject of need fascinating. Everyone, they say, is very aware of his or her material needs: food, clothing, and shelter. Long ago, however, people discovered their need for non-material things. They need love. They also need self-expression, recognition, recreation, and religion. These have been the basic needs of human been throughout the ages. People generally satisfy their needs. They spend a lot of time and energy in their effort to do this. But in my opinion, there is no important thing than happiness.
