 * __What unites a group of people?__**

I want to learn all the valuable information I can, apply it to my life, and live with others in a community that values useful knowledge. I want to learn more about my religion, and help others understand so that we have something in common. I don't want to keep secrets from others, or have them kept from me.**
 * __Personal Philosophy:__

"The stars awaken a certain reverence, because though always present, they are always inaccessible."

People are untied together even if they have nothing in common. It is human nature to interact and communicate. People will always find ways to communicate and find things in common. Why do we as humans live in groups (families/cities/ neighborhoods)?

"As he approached the village he met a number of people, but none whom he knew, which somewhat surprised him."

I have walked at night many a time and found her in a corner, readin' of a book." They didn't want anyone traveling into the real world, so they created the creature. It is easy to keep people from leaving when they are afraid to leave the only town they have known. " it was a dream of evil omen for young Goodman Brown. A stern, a sad, a darkly meditative, a distrustful, if not a desperate man did he become from the night of that fearful dream." "she left me without the slightest intimation of who my father was.

 * People will find anything that they have in common just to be with someone else. Religion, fear of the unknown, secrets, hope, and other human beings all unite groups of people. At the very least we are all humans and that is to bring us together.**
