How much "free will" do we *really* have?

[Glow]

Hard to say from my view.

We are the sum of what we came in with, our experiences, biases taught or taken on, fears, drives and everything that happens with or around us.

I see it as math. 1+1 will always equal 2.
The moment of awakening where we start to not be driven by everything of the ego and chose is that free will starting?

Or is that just more math and finally 1+1 added up enough times to = the start of awakening whatever number that would be represented by. Is the rest free will or is it just more math? All thoughts, things learned plus the new understandings gained through awakening = the rest of the choices?

I may not have a popular perception, but I think “free will” is coming here and making all these “decisions” as if we are separate. Doesn’t mean it’s still not predetermined because 1+1 will always equal 2. Lots of cause and effect in 3D.

It may not be a popular way to see it but it sure helps one forgive. If all we are is a sum of distortions and experiences we(any of us) can only be/act as we do at any time until we know better. Can’t blame anyone for being exactly where they are in the flow of evolution.
