i've been reading about so many theories since i was a first year back in 2006., but not all of them were entirely comprehended because some theories are difficult to be understood and practised. but somehow, some of them are interesting and sometimes intrigue you to dig and ask for more... i.e Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
why?.. because in our lives, we always crave for more (mcm coke) and more even the unnecessaries.. and in maslow's explanation, he elucidates and triages the needs in every human life plainly through the diagram he developed back in 1954.
put yourself in a situation where you are completely a nada..
in maslow's explanation, the first fundamental need of a human being is; biological and physiological needs, as how far as you need air, food, sex, sleep dan apa2 lagi la.. and i believe you will agree with what he says.. that is the basic thing a human being needs. can you stay alive without those?.. naaa.. cant live without 'em, including sex i reckon..
when those needs are obtained, what we people need is, safety needs as stated by Maslow in the diagram.. as far as i understand, the safety in his explanation is not solely about protection from harms, but it includes order and law where people, and in this case, i myself want to live ruled and guided and im expecting others to do the same., and from thereon, the needs for protection comes.
haih... best jugak buat review..
when i know, im in a safe condition, protected and governed, what i need more is belonginess and love. obviously human being like us cannot live without a community. why?.. even as a muslim there's requirement in ibadah which needs us to perform rituals in a community: fardhu kifayah.... actually, whatever stated in Maslow's theory has been mentioned in our sacred Al-Quran. but maslow's done it through his own explanation and certainly, there are lackings which i shall describe later.
and could you imagine your life without companion, the one you can share stories, problems and happiness..and at this point i myself will look for someone who i can share my life with.
but...
what if the first two needs are not acquired?... will you consider to budge to the 4th and 5th need as mentioned by maslow?.. some might.. but the sequence won't shift smoothly because of the existing voids. will you marry someone if yourself is not secured?, materially maybe.. but importantly, emotional concern must be taken into account... and that is what im very much thinking lately.
p/s nanti sambung... fourth and fifth, including extras!!!!
