I have broaden the notion of interest seeing it as the quiet, serene energy of sentient intelligence, the intelligence of the creative freedom of reality embodied in all forms of life, from the simplest such as bacteria to the very complex such as cultural human life where I focus my attention. There are many forms of interest, as seen hereafter. However, I will emphasize the primordial interest in reality itself, the unwavering foundation of all interest proper of a mature and healthy, free and creative intelligence, hence the name a give it. The strong symbiotic and cultural constitution of human species makes of interest much more than mere animal intentionality, even join or collective intentionality where the individual is primordial rather than the collective, the true primordial unity of life in its pluralism of forms. The ethology of interest already indicates the primacy of the collective: from Latin interesse (important) from inter- ‘between’ + esse ‘be’. Human interest is constituted in symbiosis, in intra-dependence with the rest of creative powers becoming thus cooperative common interest, which is communicative, inquisitive and above all, its full realisation is free interest in reality, in the whole, that is, loving interest.
