FREE WILL

Hey friends, Today, as I was having my morning tea, thinking about things, a girl always think about when they are all by themselves ........that was when i thought about this topic…FREE WILL. Interesting topic this is…… Free will, everyone talks about it, there are movies made about it but the true question is, is there anything known as free will and if there is, what is it? Does anyone or everyone have a right to it? Or there is someone out there who dishes it out to us? Who control this so called free will and if that is the case, how can it be free if you don’t even get to choose what kind of will you want? My only sister use to laugh at me when I watch television. She says I watch TV like someone who is in the story. Well, not far from the truth, and that is because I watch TV to understand the reason behind the story. Like what was the writer thinking about when he wrote that movie or why the writer decides to do what he/she this way and not the other way. Why the movies aren’t like the other way or why choose to be this way. I guess, my logical self love to understand the why, what and when. I feel safe that way. It may sound crazy but hey, it is me. So hey this free will thing, is it actually free, and how come it doesn’t look that way. As I began my research into this intriguing word, I would like you to open your mind, let go of all prejudices and of everything you have ever heard about it and see, if we could actually discover something together on this journey. The dictionary on my laptop gave me the definition of free will as “The power of making free choices unconstrained by external agencies” or better still “Done of your own accord”. Let me also say that one is a noun and the other is an adjective. So loving English right now… So I go check the renowned Oxford Advanced Learner English Dictionary, “The power to make your own decision without being controlled by God or fate”. And I will define it as simple as ABC, “A will that is absolutely free” or something like that. So the truth is that nothing comes free…well, in life. Okay guys there you have it, so tell me you don’t question free will or maybe I don’t understand the concept? I do want to really know what you think on this because to be honest, I'm kind of confused here. This may sound very ridiculous but I have thought long and hard about it. And if I decide to write down everything I thought on this, I am so sure I'm going to bore you. But it will be nice to have your comments on this; maybe I can pick one or two things from you guys. Till I hear from you, keep it real and true, to who you really are. I'm yours always. Gentlehawk
