Free Will

Ever wanted someone to act the way you want?? Ever felt helpless ?? Ever wanted something to happen your way and didnt happen. There was a dialogue in the movie BRUCE ALMIGHTY where Jim Carrey, the acting god tries to win his girlfriend over, he tries to make her love him and he is unable to do so. He questions Morgan Freeman, the original god why he is unable to do so. Morgan Freeman explains to Jim , "Being god you can control everything but you cant control FREE WILL". Free Will, such an amazing thing which defines individuals in us. Its that important thing that makes us bang on closed doors and retract back and teaches important lessons in life. Its something which is totally ours and others cannot claim a right on it. But sometimes can be frustrating for one to not hold control of others and maybe one should not try to control anyone. You just can hope other's "free will" matches your interests.
Free Will is maybe what you call the voice of your heart. I think one needs to follow the voice of the heart guided by the advice of the brain. That will help us to make better decisions for us and people around us.
So people exercise your free will but exercise it smartly.
Cheers.
