Why is creativity so important ? As a human beings we need to justify our existance or get the feeling of satisfaction of the life
we live. So how do we achieve that ?
We as a human beings deep inside, strive for excellence. But how do we measure a quality such as an excellence ? Lets dig deeper,
what makes a doctor excellant or excellant phone or excellant teacher ? In order to determine the excellance of anything,
first we need to find out its function or unique characteristic of object. So doctors function is the art of healing and
excellant doctor is the one who exceled in this aspect. What about human beings ? What is the function of human being?
Creativity is certainly a unique characteristic for human beings since it distinguishes us from any other creatures.
We owe to creativity our most novel, unique and of great worth works. The fullfillment of capacity for creativity
is the path to the excellence and thus to true fulfillment. As a Richard Taylor said in his “Restoring Pride” : “All this
points to a kind of imperative, minimally expressed as: Do something. Better expressed, it says: Create something.
To do otherwise is simply to waste your precious life. Do not…rest upon your dead kinship with the beasts. All they
do is eat, sleep, reproduce, then die and decay. For a person to do no better than that is in effect to lapse into a mere animal nature.”
