How do you think about 'needs' and 'wants'? Many people define 'needs and wants' in many ways. In my view, the things that is necessary for our daily life is our needs and do everything due to fill wants of needs. In the Cambridge dictionary, 'needs' is defined as 'the things that a person must have in order to have a satisfactory life' and 'wants' is as 'lack of something' . There are many kind of needs – physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging.
Physiological needs can effect negatively on the behaviour and feeling. Many crimes come from lack of physiological needs. People need foods, clothes, money, homes and so on. They do anything for their needs whether it is good or evil thing. They even kill each other. We can see clearly that there are more crimes in developing country rather than developed country. It means lack of physiological needs force the poor to do more crimes. Moreover, people can depress and get stress. Heavy depression make people suicide. The children who are from the poor family feel dejected and become unsuccessful life when they adult. We must carry out for the poor to fulfil their physiological needs.
Safety needs consists of both psychological and physical needs. We need to safe in body, employment, property, resources, family and health. They provide mentally and physically for our lives. Steady jobs solve the problems of physiological needs and satisfy people. They feel they are in the secure if they have enough money. They contribute money to savings account. People move to safer neighbourhood to feel safe. We study in the Singapore which is better and safer than our country because it is motivated by safety needs. Health is the most important thing. Poor health cause stress and disadvantages of the body. Many people have got happiness from their family and it gives strength for them. It support people mentally and physically.
Feeling in the love and belonging is the nature of human beings. For example, the young children want attention from their parents. So, if the parents neglect them and doing their work, the kids do to cancel their parents' work such as by crying. Many teenagers want attentions from the opposite sex. The old people are very satisfied when the younger pay attentions and take care them. Everyone likes loved from the others. This type of need is founded in all age groups because it is innate desire of human beings.
These needs are categorized by “Maslow's hierarchy of needs”. Physiological needs and safety needs are basic fundamental needs of human. They might have negative impact on emotion and behaviour. Therefore, these two needs have to be satisfied.
