belongs to. Acceptance by any group is something that people need in order to feel complete. Human beings could survive by simply eating food, drinking water, making clothes, and gathering wood to build a shelter. These are the basic needs for a human being. However, most people require that they fit in somewhere. Being accepted by others makes one feel comfortable, giving peace of mind to the individual. How do people get this acceptance? People obtain this acceptance through communication. They talk about common interests, beliefs, desires, ideas, viewpoints, and dreams. All of these common thoughts are joined together to form the cultural knowledge for that particular group. What makes this cultural knowledge essential is the human need for acceptance by peers. This is a new and unpredictable world in which it seems everything revolves around money. It is nice to know that there are still some things that are free that can make people feel like a million bucks. Being accepted by a group that cares about ones well-being can make that person feel incredible. If everyone understood the way in which this acceptance is obtained, there will be fewer crazed lunatics roaming the streets seeking the destruction of these groups. Basically, when it all boils down to it, everyone, whether they know it or not, longs for acceptance by some other person or group. It is this basic human need that, when satisfied for everyone, could make this world a much safer and happier place to live....
