We need to focus on one area don't we Mneme, otherwise the choice is
too intimidating.

Too much 'free will' is the problem nowadays (bah, humbug). The trouble with too many choices is 'too many choices' - nothing gets done.

Thank you, M, M and R!
Yes, I don't always vote - only when a see a point in voting. Obligatory voting is more oppressive, I agree - at least it would be in theUK, unless they changed what you could vote for.

Perhaps we should also be glad of the right to choose not to vote
here in Cyprus it is obligatory or else! Great work again, thank you

All of my shoes were stolen along with my car. I do, however, have a paid of sandals. What more could I want? What more could I need? They’re enough to walk to jail to visit the one who stole them. It was all free will anyway. Moon

I think of freewill as being the right to make for oneself the right choice.

Hi P - ouch - mind you, I walked up a stony cliff path in the rain in bare
feet recently, carrying my daughter part of the way too! Ouchissimo.

I don't often agree with Afzal (LOL) but you do in fact "nail it" with your closing lines. I wonder what shoes I shall choose today?
