Being human does not have one concrete definition; it has multiple broad meanings. It could mean multiple things. It depends on the person or situation a person is in really. Humans go through a lot in their life. They go through easy and difficult moments in their life. There are three major things that make humans what they are. The first is confusion. Life is confusing and no one ever knows exactly what they’re doing most of the time. People live some of their life confused, and that’s perfectly normal. Another thing that makes humans what they are is falling into temptation, in even the slightest form. Even the simple action of growing old another way that makes a person a human.

No one is a hundred percent sure of what they are doing at all times. People misunderstand things all the time. This can either something insignificant, or it can lead into massive misunderstandings. In the short story, “Eyes of a Blue Dog,” Gabriel Garcia Marquez tells a story about a man and a woman having some sort of relationship. The status of the relationship is unclear, and it may even be unreal. I woman is searching for a man who constantly tells her that she has eyes of a blue dog. She starts hearing it everywhere and she can’t quite make the face of who it is. She is not sure if the man is real, or if she only sees him in her sleep. She is unsure. Being unsure is a normal human feeling. People are confused all the time; looking for things that don’t exist.

So many things change as human’s age. Humans tend to get wiser, and they get more experienced as they get older. As a young child, not much of the world’s disaster is revealed. It is revealed when humans get a little older and they start to understand the world. Children have more of a pure and innocent mind than the older people do since they are ignorant and haven’t experienced much, but they slowly become more cynical as they age; more aware. In the short story “How it feels to be colored me,” Zora Neale writes about a young girl during the late 1920’s. The black and white races were split in-between. The blacks were with the blacks and the whites were with the whites. As she tells the story of the young girl, Neale describes her as indifferent. The little girl did not see the difference between the two races. As she ages, she understands why there is a large gap in-between the two races. She acknowledges the time she remembered when she became colored. At the point, she knew that the two races were not the same. A lot was going on and she was just growing up and understanding what was occurring and why. That’s a major part about being a human.
