Write 3–5-page essay on content the question: “What does it mean to be human?

To be human means to learn from mistakes and grow every day. Being
human is learning to make choices and prioritize tasks. Loving ourselves and
self-awareness are the key attributes in human possession. Living life to
fullest without regrets and knowing where our morals limit us is the human
psyche. Human a member of any of the races of Homo sapiens; person; man,
woman, or child. Being an human of course you need a lot of patience with everyone
you come in contact with and you must also know how to get along with
everything so that you are not bad in their opinion or in the opinion of others
because people could get uneasy not having many human exchanges in the
work environment Machines are good at low-skill, repetitive jobs, and at high-
speed, extremely precise jobs. In both cases they work better than humans.
This efficiency leads on this subject, the reason for that is because technology
nowadays is very advanced and can be used in great and helpful ways. In
my opinion just because robots and machines are doing work for us doesn't
mean that people are any less out of the job some people believe the
replacement of people by machines is some part of our own humanity. Even
our mundane daily encounters no longer require from us basic courtesy,
respect, and tolerance for other people I don't think any humanity is lost
from machines working for us as long as they are used right and wisely
but at the same time if people go. This is good because it pushes humans
and machines toward new, unimagined possibilities. Yes this is very good
because it makes human become better and pushes us and tests the limits
of a human. It's clear that machines are clearly advanced in many way but
the simple fact is humans made them which makes humans naturally more
advanced than a robot. You can easily build a robot designed for 1 specific
task and it is instantly a pro but that also limits what the machine can do
down to what you want it to be good at and used for a human has to
do research and practice and work out and get better at anything and everything yes
this is a disadvantage in a way but this also opens a person's horizon and
allows room to get better in every way compared to a machine. As a
human there is always room for improvement but as a machine there is
always an end to updates after a certain time. Also Good people are
characterized by certain qualities that include trust, honesty, compassion,
understanding, forgiveness, respect, courage, and good will. They do not
steal, lie, discriminate, or deny people their rights. They think about others'
welfare, and advocate for actions that make the world a better place.
The aim of people’s life might vary from person to person, but what unites
every human is what it means to be themselves; to be human is to be the
protagonist of your universe and experience life in all its colors and potential.
The feeling of being alive, the thrill of experiencing tomorrow, to be able to
perceive ourselves is the greatest wonder of the world. What makes us
humans is to be able to celebrate humanity. Humans have minds, emotions,
the ability to communicate, to perceive, to empathize, their creative capacity,
unique to their creation. It is to one’s potential that they define what it
means to be human to them. To be human is to have the freedom of
whoever one wants to be but behind the bars of humanity. Living life to
its fullest, fulfilling the responsibilities given, discovering oneself through the
journey of life, boils down to what it means to be human. A dream or a
passion that pushes people through obstacles in life is what keeps them
grounded to being a human. Often can one notice the spark in the eyes of
a person when speaking about their dreams and aims, the thrill in one’s
voice when they talk about love, any pursuit that gives hope for tomorrow
is the backbone of our lives. ‘Emotions’ are a vivid attribute to humans.
Humans can communicate through their emotions in the most genuine way.
To laugh out loud when happy, to cry out in the raw when hurt, to shout
and strain our voices when angry, to be able to feel our hearts warming
up from a touch of love, to feel the pain of others, to have a sense of
commitment is what keeps us from losing the human in us. Being human
means being imperfect and harbor both strength and weaknesses in us. To
be human is to be flawed, being stressed under pressure, to want to give
up at some point, be tired but then at the end of the day to reflect on
yourself. Having beliefs, cultures, interests makes a person unique to
themselves, celebrating ourselves keeps humanity stuck to us. From back in
times, humans have evolved to become a modern man today. Developing
over time has only helped us realize what it means to be human, the
infinite capacities that are within us and how we can only strive to make
the future better. Robert Frost is a poet well known to depict his outlook
on human life through his poems like “stopping by the woods on a snowy
evening”, “birches” and many more, where he is in a constant debate
between escapism and reality. Even though he would love to live in an
elusive dream, all of his poems conclude with him accepting his
responsibilities before becoming a slave to his fantasies. This debate is what
makes us human. Humans can question their motives, make a mature
decision, accept life with all its shortcomings as well as surprises, be happy
with their achievement, and realize that they have to attend to their
responsibilities at any cost.
To be human is to have the freedom to be yourself. The quality of being
human is firmly attached to being a human. Act of war, violence or harm robs us
of our humanity and thus makes one question the human inside them, To be human
comes along with recognizing, accepting and walking along with one’s
strength and weakness. One should fulfil all their responsibilities as human.
It is important to be true to one’s dreams. Humans are known for their
dreams and passions and strive for it. To be human means to learn from
mistakes and grow every day. Being human is learning to make choices and
prioritize tasks. Loving ourselves and self-awareness is the key attributes in
human possession. Living life to fullest without regrets and knowing where
our morals limit us should be the human psyche. They also believe that you
can acquire good or bad karma in the way you decided to live. The part of
the beliefs that link with my belief of being human is the story of the
elephant and the blind people. In this story a few blind people get to
know an unknown animal by feeling a part of the animal’s body. Each blind
person recognizes the animal differently on what they feel. Taking in to
consideration they do not feel the same body parts and therefore envisions
the animal differently, As humans are progressing as a human race into the
future, the true essence of humanity is being corrupted slowly. It is essential
to remember that the acts of humanity must not have any kind of
personal gain behind them like fame , money or power. The world we live in
today is divided by borders but the reach we can have is limitless. We are
lucky enough to have the freedom to travel anywhere and experience
anything we wish for A lot of nations fight constantly to acquire land which
results in the loss of many innocent lives. Similarly, other humanitarian crisis
like the ones more costs the lives of more than millions of people. The
situation is not resolving anytime soon, thus we need humanity for this.
Most importantly, humanity does not just limit to humans but also caring
for the environment and every living being. We must all come together to
show true humanity and help out other humans, animals and our
environment to heal and prosper and may have peace. Humanity refers to
caring for and helping others whenever and wherever possible. It means
helping others at times when they need that help the most. It is important
as it helps us forget our selfish interests at times when others need our
help All of us are capable of showing humanity. It can be through
acknowledging that human beings are equal, regardless of gender, sex, skin
color or anything. We must all model genuine empathy and show gratitude
to each other and express respect and humility. Humanity is a virtue linked
with basic ethics of altruism derived from the human condition. It also
symbolizes human love and compassion towards each other.
