Mrzzy, is roughly referencing Abraham Maslow's famous Hierarchy of Needs, which starts out with physiological needs(breathing, food, etc),, then to safety(protecting yourself etc), love/belonging, self-esteem, and self-actualization(Mrzzy's favorite, because it includes "acceptance of facts"), the higher needs coming into play only after the lower ones are fullfilled--

The pinnacle of the pyramid was "Playing the Ukulele", which was important to humanistic psychologists back in those days, perhaps because they hadn't entirely gotten past Freud;-)
