| Summary | "On Being Human" by Woodrow Wilson is a philosophical essay published in the late 19th century. This thought-provoking piece reflects on the complexities of human existence and the evolving nature of humanity in a rapidly changing world. It delves into the notion of what it means to be human in an age marked by urbanization and the hustle of modern life, proposing that genuine interaction with others and a broader understanding of the world are essential for true humanity. In this essay, Wilson contemplates the impact of societal changes on individual identity and the importance of cultivating a deep sense of genuineness and empathy. He argues that the essence of humanity is found in the balance of individual qualities—spontaneity, intelligence, and a strong moral compass. Through various reflections, he emphasizes that true human beings are those who engage with life's complexities, maintain a spirit of curiosity, and foster a cooperative community. Ultimately, Wilson calls for a renaissance of human connections and values that can navigate the intricate challenges of contemporary life, urging readers to embody a more expansive and genuine human spirit.
