What is good?

What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

Before we answer the question what things do we need to live a good life, we need to decide what is our definition of a good life.

Obviously, there are basic human needs, the foundation of Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs: safety, food, water, warmth. These are things that should be considered basic human rights.

To live a good life?

I think we need love, kindness, laughter. We need connection and peace.

For me particularly I need my husband and son, I need my cats. I need books and a comfy chair. On a bigger scale, I need art and music and great cinema.

Most of all, we all need the freedom to live the life we see is a good life without encroaching on the rights of others to live their own good life.

The Azalea bush in my garden is very happy now to have full sunlight after a large tree was cut down.
