THE 11 /VERSE

Pope John Paul /J's first ten years in St Peter's chair have been turbulent.

His election as pope surprised the world, confounded the commentators a d stunned the crowd in St Peter's Square, who fell momentarily silent when they realised they had a non-Italia pope for the first time in 400 years.

It as a bold, startling move - a pope from behind the Iron Curtain - ft seemed like something from a ork of fiction. he life of Karol Wojtyla reads like the plot of a grand omsntic novel. Born in 1920 he has survived Poland's di memberment nd tts enslavement under Hitler and Stalin.

He ha overcome great personal r. y d , losing his mother, and beloved elder brother, while still a child. He cour eous/y b came a priest in a cou try in which the Church wa persecuted. H equipped him elf, hrough constant udy and h rd work, to b come n loquent pokesmen for his p ople, spriest, bishop nd cardinal.

Ince his el ction he has had th bility to m e the most of his good fortune · bt to t e being he first pope a v. nt ge of the age of global media

A manner in wh:ch people live out basic value systen Let's call a lifestyle the manner in which people live out their basic value system.

A friend has a lifestyle of indifference to material goods. Having grown up in poverty and want, she learned how little she could live on. Instead of spending the rest of her life trying to obtain what she was deprived of, she has chosen to continue to live simply.

Flowing from that manner of modest eating, dressing and recreational habits, she also has become keenlv sensitive to others in need. Her lifestyle is a summary of the way she behaves and what she values,

'By Fr Herbert

WEBER

If a lifestyle is a basic

orientation for one's personal choices, then career, use of time and the way resources are handled be may affected.

A colleague has a lifestyle that prizes little moments of quiet reflection, enjoyment of the flowers and the trees, and serious philosphical discussions.

She is able to work a job that requires her to be very busy. onlv if

she also can get some distance from it on a regular basis. She has said more than once

that for her to remain healthy she has to have a lifestyle that pays attention to her inner cravings for peace and tranquility.

Sometimes l run into people whose lives are filled with inconsistencies. The lifestyles that they accept do not match their innermost needs.

Usually, then, a crisis occurs, a point at which the inconsistencies become glaring

and homemakers became Christians in the first days of the Church, they did not stop doing those things.

They started doing them as Christians.

What was their life like?

Th!' very first Christians, all devout Jews. "were held in favour by all the people" (Acts 2:47). Luke tells us at the encl of hi, Gospel that "thev wen, continuallv in the temple" (Luke 24:53).

The passage indicates that the first Christians

..

were observant Jews. keeping the laws on food, holv davs and other mailers. "attending svnagogoue servic es regularlv and maintaining their familial and social con tarts.

Of COUNl, thev had their own liturgy a, well, celebrated on the first day of the w,·,·k m the privarv of each other's homes (Acts 2:42-47).

Most of the firsl Christians seem to have been quill' ordinarv people. lf they had land in the c.ountrv. thev farmed it laboriously, working from dawn to dusk to squeeze a living out of rocky ',() i I.

When Tom and Anne started dating, they discovered that thev had both grown up in Catholic homes. But Tom's observance of faith was defined poorly and was far in the background of his daily concerns.

Anne's lifestyle, however, put religious practices right in the centre of all important matters. Her faith was started explicitly; she knew what it meant in her life.

people's lifestyles tend to get identified by their leisure and social activities, for it is in these contexts that people's lives are most on display to others.

What is a lifestyle• Well, in the case of am given individual or famil,. it isn't all that to define. A lifestyle· is a complex weh oft hr ways people conduct their lives.

It isn't surprising if

From the outside looking in, it may �ecm as though their lives arc organised around lei.sure and social pastimes.

Actually. much more feeds into a lifestyle. Joh and responsibilities bomelife, whether spent

easv

alone or ,vith others, are among major determiners of a lifestyle.

And it isn't just what people do that determine,, a lifestvle. It is how they do it and why.

Parenting is a role that in a big way serv·es to identify a person's lifestyle. But how different people fulfill parental commitments can differ greatly - for example how their time ,vith children is spent; how

they organise and sci the pace for the e\'ent, surrounding homelife.

Why dilTerent parents do what thev do is of equal intP�l. ho\vever.

Part'nL, differ in their long-I rm aspiration, for children, in their educational expectations. in their <ocial and religiou.s beliefs. The way they organise their live,, as parents c.an be strongly influenced by all of these.

So value s ·,terns are

woven into a lifestyle. In subtle and not-so-subtle wav,. a lifestvle can re;eal what · people e,trem.

A lifestyle becom,·s th,• context in whirh thP actions of daih life are conducted. \lam ordinary descisions of daily life are virtuall predetermined by ow,rarrhing lifestyle decsions made long ago.

That makes it of no

small import to Ike a clo.se look at one' lifestyle from time to �e. To e,aluate it is to redlllJSe the contPxt in hich murh of ones ol nary d1'! ision making d urs.

A lifestyle ftd ions somewhat like a I l'ror.

A li�style can be described as the manner in which people live out their basic value system, an orientation for one's personal choices, says Father Herbert Weber. It is the frame-11 for decisions about carttr, use of time and use of resources.

Two years ago Bruce and Marica discovered that their four-year-old child was emotionally disturbed. Their initial reaction was shock that this was happening to them. Caring for a handicapped child did not fit into any of their dreams of what the good life would be.

The discovery procipitated a thorough reevaluation of the family's lifestyle. The couple had to think about the choices open to them and to make de< Lsions about how to pattern their life 00\\.

In large part, their lifestyle is dictated h} their child's illncs., and the options I he · have to take ad\"antage of ,.omre'>ourcP"i

also mean that they haw made a decision to continue living in a metropolitan area where the resources thev want for him are a\"ailable.

Thev known thev must spend a large part of their disposable income to meet his needs.

A crisis can catapult people into taking a serious look at their lifestyle - often for the first time, said \lar,.

Roemer. She is coordinator of psychological services.

But what is a lifestvle?

One school of psychology describes it as a reflection of a "basic set of convictions and attitudes formulated very early in life" and which motivate the choices people make, she explained.

Frequently these convictions and atntudes remain unchallenged until people hit a crisis or get to a transition point and don't uderstand what is happening to them.

I have known a couple I'll call Pete and Megan for many years. To look at them from the outside, they appear to be an average middleclass couple involved in buying a house, making a living and raising their children.

Pete started out working for his father in a small famih business, His father ran the business and his mother did the bookkeeping.

The elements that m,1 up a lifestyle are many. And no one lifestyl s satisfactory for all.

In fact, sometimes what· ite suitable for one person may not fit anothu needs.

• What does the worl lifestyle" mean to you? What are the elelll!ls- building blocks - of a lifestyle?

• Think about your OI lifestyle. What are some words you would 11!1 ID describe it? What are some ways it refler s your profoundest values? Some ways it d IOI? • Why might it be val•lle for a Christian to evaluate his or her life ill times?

• What sorts of effl!\ lud people to look seriously at their lifestyleuad perhaps to make changes in them?

FOCUS ON THE BIBLE

1n

But in recent years they have made changes, important changes consciously decided on and carefully chosen.

ui occasional evalation of lifestyle is tlpful for those who ant to know if they e living according to hat they profess to llieve.

A complex web of people's way!s

When you think of the _.d "lifestyle", is it people's use of their leisure time that springs to mind? Do you spontaneously identify some people by their passion for camping, for travel, for theater-&oing or for readin ?

Like all enterprises at that time it was a family affair Families also marketed the produce they didn't need, either in their O\\..TI villages or in ther.itywhere thevset up stall,.

Before long his c.ommilment to studies and true friends suffered. Only in the pain of desperate loneliness and despair did he realise something was wrong, that his lifestyle reflected someone he did not want to be or become. Something would have to change.

Someone taped a comic strip on the door of my associate's less than neat office. In the comic strip's first panel, young Billy's mother is looking at his messy bedroom complaining, "Billy, look at this room".

In the second panel, Bill, confidently leaning against his bed in the midst of toys, clothes and books, says, "Face it, mum, this is my lifestyle."

In the third panel, a tired Billy, putting away the final items of clothing in a perfectly tidv room, adds, "Of course, lifestyle can change," Sometimes the term "lifestvle" means a manner of operating, such as a casual way of living or one that is rigid and controll d.

Other times the term reflects a major choice �omeonc has made the choice of a married person or of a celibate person in religious vows.

Because of those different uses of the term, it is hard even to know what to look for in selling out to examine a lifestyle.

Then. feeling that the values that have guided their lives no longer make ,ense, they may consult a counselor.

Often thev come with "a welter cir feelings of bewilderment and desperation. urgency and helplessness," \Is Roemer said.

She said people may complain, "I never felt this wav before .. I feel stuck and nothing I do hell" I am so nervous and scared that something Ls going to happen.

I'm out hen, on a limb."

Often what people need at this point is "lo expand their system of values and take a broader view of what constitules the good life," Ms Roemer said.

The psyc not hera pist told of Clara, a secretary in her 60,,. Despite her rich, full life, punctuated by involvement in her church and her family. and the memories of earlier missionary work in Africa, she consulted Ms Roemer saying that "nothing IS working right." ln talking with Clara, it

dreams before either reached 67.

That caused Pete and Megan to do some serious thinking.

"We realised that we were doing the same things Mum and Dad had done," Megan explained, "putting off all our plans for later."

"And it's not as if we were postponing everything as part of a plan," Pete added. "That's just the way things were done. \1y parents did it, it seemed to work for them and that's the wav we should do it." · He explained that his parents had put all their energies into the business. not because thev had lo but out of habit.· "lf I had gone to them and told them lo take a trip somewhere and relax for a few months, I know they would gave been startled," Pete added. "But the, would have done it." · "They certainly loved the retirement time they had," he said. "In retrospect there was no reason ii shouldn't have begun earlier."

That experience caused Pete and Megan to start looking at the shape ol their own lives. Where were all their energies going? What and who was getting prime time?

Why were they doing things this way? And who was making the decisions?

Running our own lives rather than being run by events is part of a Christian life.

Pete and Megan realised that the} had to work to pay the bills. And raising a family was the ·a.1 energy consumer, But other things were subject to their control Pete was getting to work each morning before nine and staying until closing because "I thought I should." Half the time he had nothing to do, thanks to the efficiency of the office manager.

"I had this crazy combo of housework and office work that was really wearing me out," 1egan said. "I was working because I thought we needed the money. Pete thought I was working as a respite from the house and kids."

In time Peter and Megan sorted out what they could control from the responsibilities and commitments they could not change.

Then they reshaped their dailv and weeklv routines I� fit the things they decided were important and in line with the lifestvle the, wanted for themselves. -

She tells of working with people in business who "clearly are the monk type ... gifted in a particular field or another . .
