Purpose -- I've written often in these posts about organizational goal and purpose. Here's a quote from a movie currently in heavy rotation on HBO...
"Without purpose, we would not exist. It is purpose that created us, purpose that connects us, purpose that pulls us, that guides, that drives us. It is purpose that defines us, purpose that binds us." -- Former Agent(s) Smith, The Matrix Reloaded
But of course that character would naturally understand being part of a system. It's us humans that need to be reminded of it from time to time.
