So we are. It is the basis of our communal life and social obligation. We are social beings. Community with others not only helps us secure such basic goods as knowledge and life itself, but is a basic element in our well-being and fulfillment as persons. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church points out, The human person needs to live in society.
Sharing is at the very core of good human relations.
Each of us enters this world as part of a society the family the original cell of human society. As we grow, we interact with our parents and other members of the family. We learn to value them, their importance to ourselves and our relationship to them. Anyone who has grown up in a family with several siblings knows the give and take that is part of family life. Things don t always go the way we want them to nor do our needs always come first.
