Creative Responsibility

What does it mean to become fully human? How does creative responsibility brings us towards the core of our humanity and ethical life?

Creative?Responsibility? These two words have different definitions but when these two words are combined to form one word which is "creative responsibility" then this would already mean a different way around. In this blog I am to share to you my own outlook and understanding regarding this word.

Man's moral life, at the outset, can best be identified and describe as a life of creative responsibility. Since man's vocation is becoming fully human, this commitment to the fullness and wholeness of being human is the foundation of morality. This is somewhat like our respond to the human necessity to the best person we can possibly become. It is doing good because it is good - it is doing the truly human thing. Furthermore, the asserts that "it is making decisions in response to our humans thrust to be good rather than in response to the necessity of law, to social pressure, to doing our own thing, or even avoiding sin or doing basd things against the will or commandments of God" .

A person who responds creatively to what he can be and should think in a positive manner rather than in a negative way. A person who responds creatively to his human potentials commits himself to choices to do good, thus, commits himself to what is bad. A moral eduactor, for example, is not moral only because it is personally and humanly necessary for him or her to be so. He or she is also moral in his or her role as a father or mother, husband or wife, son or daughter, or as a sister or brother to his or her siblings. Like in the case of students just like me, is that he or she is considered as a morally responsible high school student when he or she responds to more than the demands of his or her individual nature to his or her fellowmen especially the elders: He responds to the needs of his teacher, his clssmates gis parents, his alma mater, even to his neighborhood and the subject matter of his studies. This is waht it means to be a moral person: to create an atmosphere of good, to help improve the world in which one lives, and to help others and human kind in general to achieve its vision.

-The ideal of what it means is to be human. The vision of a society where human beings live in true justice, companion, goodness, respect of course in order or us to recognize equality wherein we learn to respect the rights of others, which woul lead us to achieve peace easily and most especiallyis the love.

So therefore I could say or conclude that creative responsiblity is not individual but collective; it is coresponsibility. The moral life should be presented as a life of creative responsilbility. To grow in responsibility - for one's self, fellowmen, and to ones God.
