This essay examines the philosophical debate on free will, using Kierkegaard's life stages as a framework. It argues that despite the perception of free choice, human decisions are heavily influenced by emotions, environment, and past experiences. Analyzing aesthetic and ethical stages reveals constraints on free will, challenging its absoluteness. Insights from philosophers like Sartre and Aristotle suggest free will may be illusory. The essay underscores the complex interplay between choice and determinism, advocating for a nuanced view of human agency.
