A community is a familiar thread used to bring people together to advocate and support each other in the fight to overcome those threats. As human beings, we need a sense of belonging, and that sense of belonging is what connects us to the many relationships we develop. Like in the documentary Home, Human, Century of self and Zeitgeist; I realised how every little detail in our life is interconnected .


The main aspect of human security is considered to have changed from being state focused agenda to an individually focused agenda in security scholarship. Nevertheless, the topic of human security is quite multifaceted and demands caution when analyzed in different contexts. Financial, Health, Shelter, Danger every aspect is important.


Having empathy doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll want to help someone in need, though it’s often a vital first step toward compassionate action. “Affective empathy” refers to the sensations and feelings we get in response to others’ emotions; this can include mirroring what that person is feeling, or just feeling stressed when we detect another’s fear or anxiety. “Cognitive empathy,” sometimes called “perspective taking,” refers to our ability to identify and understand other people’s emotions. After watching Reel Bad Arabs and True cost I understand the meaning and can relate myself how to feel in someone else shoes.


Physical needs concern our most basic drives that are necessary for us to survive. Our first needs are associated with basic survival, such as the need for food, water, sex and sleep. These are all associated with our biological drives and are therefore needs you must satisfy in order to stay alive. Home and Human Documentary is the best examples of our Physical needs and how we are over consuming it leaving very little or nothing for others.


In order to get our very important emotional needs, we need to feel safe, to feel in control, to feel loved or cared about, to feel purposeful, to feel valued, to feel stimulated, to feel capable – these are some of the emotional needs that, when met will help you to flourish in your life. Documentaries like Human, The four Horsemen and Zeitgeist have very powerful projections of how much Emotional needs are important for people and one wrong emotion can bring a disaster in the entire system.
