When we are hungry, it’s too late to go shopping. The physical need is likely to override disciplines regarding portion size and nutritional value. We become vulnerable to eating whatever is around,
Similarly, with other human needs, if anticipated and prepared for we are less likely to take whatever comes our way and we have energy to keep looking for valuable ways to meet our needs. As we accept responsibility for our needs (Shelter, clothing, right livelihood, a sense of belonging in addition to food, drink, exercise and rest) these companions guide us.
What human needs do you anticipate? Which of these companions require more preparation? Ki to Happiness accepts responsibility.
