Helm,
I think that "self awareness" is one of the key components of being human or, in simpler terms, realizing that there is an "I". To me, the development of this "I" can only come from the realization that there are other objects, living and nonliving, which serve to make us view ourselves as an "other" entity separate from "them". The next logical step is in seeking communications with "them", which is another keep contributor to our humaness that most other animals (subject can be debated to a degree ... re: dolphins, apes, ect.).
