To what extent are you in control of what you do with your life to what extent are the things you do influenced by the decisions and expectations of others?
I am definitely doing things in life that I wouldn't be doing if I had complete free will due to a mixture of factors.

Nobody has free will. We are hard coded by our DNA and to the extent that this code can flex we are shaped by our environment and circumstances.

Sumo fear not I'm generally quite chipper at the moment but just having a pensive afternoon as life is going to start changing in the next few months and working out what to do.

what clergs and guy said about free will, but I am going to look at some houses for sale at the weekend (with a view to moving in the summer) and feel a bit more in control of life's general direction in the short-medium term.

Sort of comforting to think about

Free Will does not exist
I (think) I believe this but I do find it all very confusing
