the desire to be happy. (you could argue this might not even be necessary - happiness are chemical reactions in our bodies, at the end of the day)
a sense of fairness is a good thing. (this is weird, isn't it. but we like things fair. but we also like being superior. you can't please us all)
ability to empathize. (can you have compassion without empathy?)
the curiosity to find out, to question according to human logic until you reach and recognize it is a dead-end. (as in who created the creator? and the creator's creator? and the creator's creator's creator? in theory it could be a failure of human logic rather than a failure of the universe's laws)
the desire to find a solution, figuring out what the constraints are - including situation, our personal abilities, (and realizing there sometimes no solutions, not at this point anyway. is it still worth trying then?)
