Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on.
And it makes me wonder.....

Alright, did I start writing this blog because of free will said so? or was I determined to write this blog anyways... Immaterial of what my free will had decided whether to write or not to write... Hmmm According to visakh it is free will, the very concept of making choices, to take any decision itself constitutes our demonstration of free will, He gives an example of just simply moving our hands across our face.. or some just the mere act of lifting one's hand, though it is of no importance for calling to be an action or work with at least some use... At every juncture, within a split second you always have two choices to make.. that's what propels the thought of free will.. And for me somehow though it might constitute as free will, its always determined and my theory goes something like this.. Everything is determined.. Your education, your thought process, your sleep, your dream... I think therefore I am saying for every action there is an response from our system which is already determined immaterial of what choice you make.. That deterministic approach or fate (though I have some confusion over this).. is something that is already known to your system and and it just reacts the way it is supposed to react...
According to me there are 2 entities of ourselves one the mind that gives us instruction to do a particular action, and our body which has an option of responding to it... We as a conscience (partly body and part of soul) dunno what the outcome is but our mind knows the outcome but since we don't know the exact outcome ourselves(body and soul)... we tend to think that there is free will.. I am sorry to bring Soul here in the topic because i want to differentiate between our conscience and mind... which is two different entities according to me.. Conscience is dependent of mind.. where as mind is independent of conscience... a perfect example would be mind says to kill a insect that hurting you.. But the conscience gives a negative response to to mind.. This mind is constituted from our inborn reflexes and the one's that we try copy from nature and others... and it has vague set of responses for every action of ours, indifferent of which action you take the outcome is already determined... whatever the mind takes the decision it has an outcome that is already determined.. And his question would be then who controls or determines this.. and if there is a controller (example... GOD (lol)) How can he control each and every actions of ours and a zillions others at the same time.. Has he got a set of rules and programmes for each person... I don't think so... Wait a minute I am contradicting myself here... hmmm The determined future we don't know, has an outcome... But the choice or free will is something that is not original in ourselves... Its always dependent of others and our inbuilt reflexes..

Free Will :The power of making free choices unconstrained by external agencies
Deterministic : An inevitable consequence of antecedent sufficient causes
