This is great question about free will 🤔Do we choose our desires or do they exist and we act on an instinctual basis? Heres the catch..Imagine doing something naturally, without cause, totally driven by a feeling that arises from nature. Nature is always whispering to us and many times our subconscious chooses what we do next based on perhaps more of what we dont know is happening than we are actually aware of. Still, I am thinking..lol. I believe ultimately we do have the will to be freely choosing, whether or not we are capable of acting on that or not still boils down to our desire to control our desires. Yes, we have free will. Think of this..what is more signifigant? The human mind making choices naturally and logically long before we knew how to reverse engineer the process in a research facility OR the fact that after thousands of years, we have learned how to manipulate a natural process that would occur whether we had known about it or not. In my opinion, free will matters because ultimately we decide whether to eat that cookie. Desire CAN take a back seat. We just have to want to put it there 😁😎
