 OK, I'm back and have done some thinking.
As I said, I'm going to break this down into physical, social, and emotional needs.
Physical:
I need regular sleep with appropriate length.
I need to be sure I eat.
I need to get outside to BREATHE.
Social:
I need safe gatherings of people I know.
I need to be respected and treated kindly.
I need clear communication in both directions.
I need sincereity and frankness.
Emotional:
I need to be accepted for what and who I am.
I need to be understood.
I need security - financially, physically, and emotionally.
I need to be independent.
I need alone time and quiet.
I need open space and exits.
Well, that's a stab at it anyway. What I found interesting as I thought of this was defining a need instead of a desire. I've basically shut the door for relationships, though I have the desire to be loved unconditionally, I don't know that it's a need? I did manage to open the door a crack this year but it was slammed in my face. I may get there one day soon, who knows. |
