The Cyclical Hierarchy of Social Needs
Human beings are inherently social creatures. Much of human development occurs through relationships; children depend on parents and caregivers, students learn from teachers and mentors, adolescents seek acceptance from their peers, and adults participate in families, workplaces, neighborhoods, communities, and institutions. Though psychology has long examined individual needs such as safety, esteem, and self-actualization, it is also useful to consider whether human beings possess a distinct set of social needs that develop through increasingly broad forms of interpersonal connection.

How Life Can Change in an Instant
Most people, in their everyday city lives, never suspect that everything could change in an instant. For every person, that moment arrives at a different age and under different circumstances. Some suddenly become wealthy, while others lose everything. For some, life comes to a stop after losing someone they love.
