In previous topic, the user tanya023 has said that it is true inner good in us.

That's quite deep thought so I think it should be analysed.

If we take business world, well we recive money for giving required services or products. Which means we give something people "need" and that coud be called true good.

Connection with people...this part is trouble. I don't know how good could be formulated for people...

What could it be? Giving money? LOL!?! Kinda bribing them for closeness. Hmm..I'm sure Brandon would like that idea more than anyone of us here.

Well anyway, I expect to hear other opinions as well.

It is difficult to have 'true inner good', even if someone does do something, anything, normally some type of benefit is attributed to it. I am an idealist, so I do believe that if we each tried to do at least one thing a day, for no reason except to see a smile on that person face, the world could be a better place. But I'm not Mother Therese, I don't live in poverty and devote my life to helping others who are worse off from me, but I give what I can and that's all that I can do for now.

Here what I got from searching google:

Technology unites people
Music unintes people
Celebrations unite people
Culture unites people
Hobbies unite people
Soccer unite people
Religion unite people
Sense of community unite people
Fashion unites people
Message boards unite people(!)
Politics unite people
Team work to accomplish something (non profit) unites people
...
..
.

So on and so on....And none of them money related...

I do not completely agree with you Brandon. Yes there is some truth in what you say. But such things happen so rare, that other "breakable" things rule the most of the time. Therefore they are more important.

Haffo, I don't believe that it is a certain item or interest .. rather a desire.

For everything that CAN unite people, the same thing can tear them apart. If two people want to have a bond with another, then everything they do will be united .. even when they fail.

P-Angel,

That sounds like make sense.

If I understand you correctly, you speak about people who are interested in each other intimately (since you were talking about two people?). That's where people can show their interest in their naked form (in the direct way). When we speak about groups, we cannot speak about direct iterest. Right? There should be some item of interest to connect with each other, otherwise it could lead to misunderstandings. After all, the direct way for intimate purposes.

Do I get you right? Or there is something else about this?
