When I was in college, I minored in psychology. Once I left, I never looked back. There have been very few times in my life that I have even thought about that field of study, despite having utilized professional counseling on occasion over the past 15 years.

I saw something written about Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs on facebook the other day and it got me thinking. So I looked it up to refresh my memory.
