It is not the "LOVE" element that human society really lacks ! It is not the " love" element defficient in this world! Everyone loves rewards... Wink And therefore, ... Love is everywhere! 
 The missing element in this world is the GENUINE, PROFOUND FRIENDSHIP! 
The quality of the character of an entity is a consequence of its level of maturity and therefore is essentially unique and certainly so very different. 
Given the on growing, diversity of the multitude of characters, modes of operation, unshared systems of values, the existence of DISORDER is simply a normal outcome of this reality. ~ fmoesf 

'Friendship is one soul dwelling in two bodies.' ~ Aristotle ( A very rare occurance ) 

“A friend is a second self, so that our consciousness of a friend's existence...makes us more fully conscious of our own existence.” 

The key elements really missed by this world are : the inward - outward balance, the PROFOUND INTELLIGENCE , WISDOM, THE HOLISTIC PERCEPTION , A SHARP , DYNAMIC LUCIDITY, A COHERENT THINKING PROCESS, a deeply intelligent, adaptable, elastic : 
- educational system in the spirit of moderation, morality, ethics, 
- laws, rules, norms of social coexistence and their norms of application, 
- forms of communication 
These missing essential elements would probably make the social coexistence a bit more bearable.

Aristotle about FRIENDSHIP : 

ARISTOTLE: 
'Friendship is one soul dwelling in two bodies.' 

“A friend is a second self, so that our consciousness of a friend's existence...makes us more fully conscious of our own existence.” ~ Aristotle 

'Justice and friendship are closely connected, as both tie communities together. Since justice, friendship, and community are closely related, it is far worse to abuse a close friend or family member than it is to abuse a stranger.

This is why a genuine friendship between people is impossible or it is an extremely rare cosmic grace, and why humanity needs strict norms of social behaviour, laws and rules...

ARISTOTLE: 
●'Friendship is one soul dwelling in two bodies.' 


●'When there is too great a gap between people, friendship is impossible, and often two friends will grow apart if one becomes far more virtuous than the other.'

'Justice and friendship are closely connected, as both tie communities together. Since justice, friendship, and community are closely related, it is far worse to abuse a close friend or family member than it is to abuse a stranger.

There are three kinds of friendship. The first is friendship based on utility, where both people derive some benefit from each other. The second is friendship based on pleasure, where both people are drawn to the other’s wit, good looks, or other pleasant qualities. The third is friendship based on goodness, where both people admire the other’s goodness and help one another strive for goodness.

The first two kinds of friendship are only accidental, because in these cases friends are motivated by their own utility and pleasure, not by anything essential to the nature of the friend. Both of these kinds of friendship are short-lived because one’s needs and pleasures are apt to change over time.

Goodness is an enduring quality, so friendships based on goodness tend to be long lasting. This friendship encompasses the other two, as good friends are useful to one another and please one another. Such friendship is rare and takes time to develop, but it is the best. Bad people can be friends for reasons of pleasure or utility, but only good people can be friends for each other’s sake.

On the whole, friendships consist of equal exchanges, whether of utility, pleasantness, or goodness. However, there are some relationships that by their nature exist between two people of unequal standing: father-son, husband-wife, ruler-subject. In these relationships, a different kind of love is called for from each party, and the amount of love should be proportional to the merit of each person. For instance, a subject should show more love for a ruler than the reverse. When there is too great a gap between people, friendship is impossible, and often two friends will grow apart if one becomes far more virtuous than the other.

Most people prefer being loved to loving, since they desire flattery and honor. The true mark of friendship, though, is that it consists more of loving than of being loved. Friendships endure when each friend loves the other according to the other’s merit.

Problems between friends occur most frequently within friendships based on utility. On the whole, the person who receives a service, and not the giver, should determine the value of that service. In unequal friendship, it is important that each person receive an appropriate benefit. A poor person cannot give money to a rich benefactor, but can give whatever honor is within the poor person’s means.' ~Aristotle
