Perche Sono Me Ii

Perche Sono me II. I interact with the blues because I feel sad and I am alone. The blues are an expression of my internal feelings. My biological needs and psychological needs are in a constant state of dueling. My biological needs are pulsating. My psychological needs are in a strong state of defense. My biological needs are very powerful. They want to spring a new bio. So powerful that it hurts the three components of my life. It feels like only a visit from the reaper could make them go away. These needs are powerful and must not win. You ask me “why don’t you just follow your biological needs?” Why do you continue to deprive your body of what it wants? Would you deprive it of food and water? Truthfully, I am conscious and will not follow in the footsteps of some of my friends in the past. I do not want to make the same decisions that they made and realize my mistake(s). My biological needs will not deprive me. I deprive my body of these needs because I must continue to go forward. A short break of a few minutes may end up as a divine comedy for a long time with no smiles. Food and water are vital to the sustained notion of life. Procreation and non- procreation in a sexual environment are ok, but it is not meant to be the controller of life. My psychological needs are more important to me. Self-esteem & self-actualization are at the top of the pyramid. My physiological needs are at the bottom Praise Allah for Maslow My mind is more important than my body My mind wants me to go forward and never give up. I must follow my dreams and not the wishes of the undercroft. Finally, I say to all of you this is the reason why I am single I want to be with someone that connects with me and I with them. I am not looking for an easy person. Too many of the doves are brown and sound like quails. I am looking for my white dove with the voice of the hawk and the majestic tranquility and beauty of an eagle in all its beauty. I have not found my phoenix. I will not die because I live. “Cowards die many times but the valiant taste death once.” These are the words of Julius Caesar to his wife Calperna. With this quote in mind I will move forward and I will do it my way. Maslow was and is still right.
