Misty, October 17, I967 SCARLET AND ILACK MAKE MORE THAN LOVE By PAUL JONES One of the many results at my previous columns in the 5&3, ospeclally those concerning creativity, is that I have noticed that very few people have any sense of the term ‘creatlvity’ as any kind of broad or Inclusive concept. Most of the criticism or com« ment that 1 nova received has been to the etlect that "Creativity is something that just can’t go on all or the time, since it either takes a special type of person to be creative, or a special talent." It may be so that it takes both special people and special talent, biit this does not mean that an attitude of creativity cannot be de- veloped by everybody on this campus, or that one has to be born creative to be so. The fact is that creativity can exist in every kind oi activity which a person undertakes, from writing poetry to developing re- lationships with people. As the title or one or my previous columns stated, “Man is a creative animal.” To be human is to be creative. to develop a creative attitude toward everything you do. For those who are willing to take on the burden or being human, or being conscious at every moment of being conscious, or living actively and openly, or living with people, not between or among them, or taking every relationship as an inside activity rather than an out- side activity, admittedly, life is not easy, or as certain as it might be otherwise. But a person is not born as a human being, but rather as a potential human being; You have to struggle, make choices, suffer agonies of loneliness, to finally gain a soul. not in the religious or mystical sense necessarily, but in the sense or a hard and deeply-rooted knot oi compassion. an understanding oi what it is to be human, a desire to feel as much as you know Unlortunstely. most people live breastied by their surround- ings around here, and it not, then in a situation oi animal require- ments which allow no time tor making choices, At a school like this people don't really think that they have to struggle; not that everything is merely given to them, or course, but they sort of live in a film or shadow, never quite realizing, or trying to realize, what they are doing: not what they will do, but what they are do- lng. The ease with which certain individuals {ind categories for other people and the narrowness of the scales of Values on which many people, events, relationships, are judged, are only indica« tlons of the rut into which so many people fall: that of not viewrng every person as different, as a potential relationship of creative Value. Perhaps the title at this column should have been: ”Make more With love, not just love itself.” } MlMES (Continued mm Page 1) lelt San Francisco—shows th. scheduled time as 10 p.m. “We thought we were definite- ly scheduled {or 10 pm after the Lenox Quartet," Davis said, “and we think we've been hus< tied into a prime time show tor a lousy 3150."
