What does it mean to be human?

You can find many definitions of “being a human” if you go to Google. But all the things that the people tell you can’t be proven (I think). Being a human is a mysterious job. Really, who made us? I mean, we’re not made in fabrics and we don’t come out of the ground like trees. Why are we even here? To built houses, and destroy the planet, or to do something good and make changes? “What does it mean to be a human” is a difficult question and I’m glad that that someone who made us humans, also made philosophers. But beyond Google and philosophers I think that being a human is living your life in your own special way and make a difference in the world. I mean, why else are we here? Everyone is unique and has its own ideas, and that’s great! So, every human is living its life in another way, some do good things and live in peace, and some do very evil things. All these different humans create a balance. Like the yin and yang symbol! If we didn’t have these different people, everyone would be the same; there is no news, there are no exciting things, and life would be boring. Be proud of who you are and don’t bother about how to life your life. There isn’t a user guide to help you. There are many rules and laws that say many things, but they don’t tell you how to live your life and what it means to be a human.
