Freewill

Does education leads towards reality or towards something which majority feel correct. But it does wonder most of the times when it compels us to contemplate in any particular issue. I believe that’s the most important role of education.
And today it did one more wonder when a question came in class ‘what is the difference between human being and animal.’
As our professors said and so does the research- ‘It’s the free will’. It’s something which we have but they don’t. Animals always act in a predetermined manner. Though, the basket of their predetermined manners may contain more than one action. But in case of human being no such basket exists. This factor of ‘freewill’ creates all the uncertainties in the human behaviour. Though we may feel blessed for such a gift but then we should also know that ‘free-will’ is the only reason why only human being can commit suicide and no other species can. (So everything comes with a price).
Really the concept of free will tickled me. Not until I thought........What about love? Is that genetically coded or is it a free will. Though, it is both a human as well as animal behaviour. But then I see a lot of free will existing in LOVE.
Then my friend Mudit argued –“If love is true then it is genetically coded otherwise it is a will. True love can’t be temporal.” On contrary I feel even true love can be temporal and freewill has a fair amount of role to play in it.

Neil loved John as a friend (True love). Incidentally, John is a contract killer. When Neil came to know that John is on a wrong path; he dint lose confidence immediately, rather wanted (and tried) to bring him in right path.. (Illustrating one of the features of true love). But Neil didn’t succeed in his attempt. As Jhon denies leaving his profession, Neil gets disappointed and keeps safe distance. (Though the love doesn’t come to a halt)
But one day the contract killer Jhon kills Neil's girlfriend Sharon (nothing personal only out of profession).............

I feel Neil’s freewill has role to play to determine their(Neil-John) course of love(friendship).
What say guys (of course gals too)!!!!!!!!!
