Very nice thread...
I also believe "need" and "want" are way different, but i'll join in and think of it more in a "want" way.
Love. Unconditional, from family, friends.
Security. Feeling safe and out of harms way.
To feel needed. Helping people that reach out or those that can't but should.
Laughter. A day without laughing is a day wasted.
Sunshine. It warms my bones and my spirit.
Acceptance. To be who i am from my friends without judgement or prejudice.
Independence. Some of the time.
Quiet time. To think thoughts through, especially early in the day or when something is on my mind.
Understanding. That i goof up. I make mistakes. But, hey, we all do.
Last, but certainly not least, and something that has been on my mind more and more the past few months.....
Community. Without community i feel isolated, alone and strange in a foreign land where no one really understands my heart. (thank you planet)
