What is the fundamental option?

The fundamental option is the basic and main choice for the whole life. Choosing in this way is nothing more and nothing less than choosing what to live for.When someone presents himself as a Christian, it is not only assumed that his conscience is a Christian, but also that there has been a decision to live as such. You have decided or you have reached the conclusion that you want to live from that global vision of life and thus give meaning to your entire existence.Every person lives more or less freely and responsibly that decision, that option that gives meaning to his life and that he has assumed as his own.

How do you get to the fundamental option?
The fundamental option is always taken by a conscious act in which a way of thinking or a faith, whatever it may be, is assumed as what structures our own consciousness and, therefore, as the origin of the meaning of our own existence.

In addition, the fundamental option is also formed by one’s own personal history, belonging to a town, to a family, to a culture, and by the experiences of childhood, youth, professionals, due to having an illness or disability, which conditions a whole life, etc.

All of this is forming a conscience, an orientation in life, some guidelines that help to assume or reject certain offers and models, which will become mature to the extent that each person elaborates their LIFE PROJECT, that is, what I want to do, how I want my life to be.

What is acting morally?
Each one of us considers our actions and behavior as good or bad, but in general we demand that we do well as a duty, an obligation. The word “moral” directly links human conduct and acts by their value, that is, as good or bad.

Finally, Morality of human acts can be summarized as: “Human acts, that is to say, freely carried out after a judgment of conscience, can be qualified morally: they are good or bad” (Catechism, 1749). “Acting is morally good when the choices of freedom are in accordance with the true good of man and thus express the voluntary ordination of the person towards his ultimate goal, that is, God himself.”
