Universal Goodness : 21 Life’s Limitations 1. Life Is Made Possible Because of the Four Needsies. To survive, human beings require the four necessities of life, namely, clothing, food, shelter and medicine. But these four necessities can also be the sources of desire. If one is not careful, one can end up wanting much more than what one needs. When that happens, one must struggle to work so hard to try to earn as much as money as possible in order to afford all the things that one wants. The final results may be ill health, financial problems, bad habits, wasted time and energy, social problems and environmental problems. 2. Human Beings Have a Short Lifespan. If human beings desire the four necessities of life in excessive quantities, they will only encourage their defilements to grow. The results are bad habits and a waste of a lifetime.
