I think OP intended something more like a “strong sense of harmony"

Or, more succinctly, the wish was "everyone has my moral compass, and can't ignore it". Unfortunately, the foundations upon which people build their "moral compass" is almost as varied as people themselves. It's one of the reasons politics exists, so that we can sort out where to draw the legal line in between differing beliefs, without resorting to the age-old practice of deciding who is right through a war which sorts out who is left.
