There have been debates over this topic for years and years. Everyone thinks differently and have a different opinion on the nature of good. However to me the nature of good is to not harm anyone in any way. The nature of good is to simply when you make another individual happy. Also, if an individual does something fairly, or that’s justified, it’s considered as good. Many views value unity as a good: to go beyond eudemonia by saying that an individual person's flourishing is valuable only as a means to the flourishing of society as a whole. In other words, a single person's life is, ultimately, not important or worthwhile in itself, but is good only as a means to the success of society as a whole.
In some cases, good is when you don’t go against something. For example not going against the law is a good thing. If you ask anybody is helping a good thing or bad. The answer would be a yes simply because it’s a cause that won’t harm but make the other individual happy. Good in other words to make someone else happy by doing the “right” thing.
