Is there a choice?

A small yet significant question is continuosly occupying a small part of my RAM.

Do we have free will, OR, is everything on destiny and no matter what we have to accept it?

If we do have choice, then what is it? and in case we dont have a choice, then why are we here? to learn what ? tht god is omnipotent?

no answer coming forth, so blogging it down...may be some day will know.

its quite a time i am writing this at.. the blasts in mumbai have shaken everybody.. most of us are safe and thank heavens or what u define as destiny for that matter.. but what abt those people who died.. were they pushed into travelling by destiny or did they board the train due to their own free will. most people i saw dead at sion hospital, werre office goers like us and most of them were returning home before their usual time.. why did they not return late.. were they not allowed to stay at office becasue of destiny.. i personally feel there is something in ultimate darkness just like a black hole or in complete light which if u notice carefully is just when u actually cant see anythin bacause ur eyes are shunned by brightness.. this means that both the ultimate brightness and darkness are actually not helping us in anyway.. then y r they opposite to each other and y do we pray for light when even in light we cant see... i beleive that somethin in both light and darkness is the one (the thing) which decides the suttle decisions, decisions like shud i take a left or right, and u go left and there is a blast on ur right.. decisions like shud i bunk or not, u bunk and the lecture gets cancelled, and when u go to attend the lecturer puts u out.. there r things so simple things like these happening to us day in day out, and we dont have any explanation, any rational behind it.. we simply cal it LUCK. luck can be anything of destiny or of free will.. i feel man and his brain probably his greatest gift has yet not evolved so much for us to actually find a reason behind things like these.. till then u call it destiny, u call it free will u call it luck, the only thing thats is in ur hands is try to create a science for it... make notes for every such incidents and try to connect these outcomes and the results for these outcomes.. may be there is a science attached to such things.. i had tried to look at 10 incidents in my life 5 good 5 resulting into bad and all of them decided on spontaneity, on destiny on free will or as i call it on luck.. i actually found that 8 out of those 10 incidents had a pattern of results.. i found that 3 out 5 incidents that i failed cud have been easily avoided if i wud have given it a thot of my previous successful experiences.. it was a facsinatin revealation, something i felt i noticed it first than anyone else in this world.. i have not gone thru any exercise like that since but i know truly one thing, that theres a certainty in spontaneity and theres a trend in decisons which our heart our minds normally while facing a dilemma.. for the dilemma of two different types the trend of our choice is same and so we fail once and we succeed in the other.. we feel the results are equal and there is no science behind it, but if we look at the situ, we failed we will know that the failure cud have been avoided if we wud have given the thot abt nature of our dilemmas.. may be the choice cud have been the right one.. i truly beleive that right decisons at spontaneous occasions is a gift but this gift can be made a science as well... its just that we have to apply our minds and body on that aspect and concentrate to not make mistakes first.. maybe withold our spontaneity for a while till our body and mind gets used to those decisions and thats when u let it go.. i dont know if less people wud have died or more if spontaneity decisions becomes a science for us, but i do know the chances for failure might get reduced from 50%.. i dont want to blow trumpets on my name, but trust me people often wonder why i get away with so many things i shud not, ( i bunk 80%) of lectures and stuff, but frankly speaking i have tried to imbibe that quality of decision making in spontaneity.. the quality of thinking calmly in spontaneity, when most people have 10 msec for spontaneity, i feel they are like 10 min.. most of the probabilities are worKed out well in advance and their solutions are thot of.. even then i get caught amongst the guilty for not less than 50% of times i tak chances.. we all know whats a risk and whats a chance.. the science of spontaneity leads us to discussion of chances or of risk takings.. the idea of makin a chance taking or a risk taking situation or decision a science is to actually work ur brains like computers.. u might laugh at me thinkin its not possible but trust me,it is possible to think 1000 prob in 10 msec and to know solutions for these.. a computer is still limited i feel the number i am talking is just the start for our brain.. the idea of using more % of ur brain is something i feel lies wit u.. we say when too many windows are open the computer is using max ram.. when 1000 poss are in thought about at a time ur brain is working at max at full speed.. now ask urself how many things do u think of at one time.. and in how much time do u get the answer for.. 1 min and u have a decision.. for one thot.. this is how fast ur brain works.. open many thots and u will see how quickly it can still work.. maybe it will not help u earlier may be u will not get it right at first times, but load ur brain with thts with different situations and try to get a solution in given time and u will see that u can get a solution.. the brain will work as fast as u work on it.. its just like ur legs.. they will walk as fast u cary them.. the faster the brain works the less time it needs to takeone decision the 10 msec becomes 10 min, the whole spntaneous moment becomes a eternity.. now u tell me isnt it a science?? can we make luck, destiny, free will a science?? i have proved nothin here and i might not do in my entire life.. but i have a instinct in my heart that if i work on it if i apply myself on it, i think i will certainly close in on my objective.. the objective to find SCIENCE..
