What does it means to be human? There is something deeply and mysterious in this question that we cannot explain. Being a human of course is to have fingers, head, heart, mouth, legs, hands, etc. But what is really meant by saying “to be human”? Does it mean that humans need to be able to speak?

For example, people keep destroying the forest for their goods for now and don’t even think of the future. They killed animals that make the animals being destroyed from day to day. But being a human we can tell we are not going to be selfish. To be honest I sometimes just think of myself. They do not just stop at not being fair with nature; humans are not fair with each other, too. Gender equality is one of the problems in the world now. Just that enough to show how selfish we are.
