Free Will?
I have been thinking about 'Free Will' and how the concept develops throughout our lives. Shouldn't we be able to maximize our opportunities if our lives(waking lives) were ruled by free will? Or does the mind create its own games to inhibit our personal freedoms? Among these games, I wonder how Schopenhauer justified the suggestion that in death, our free will is more pronounced (because the will to live is irrational during life)... Is that because, in death, our true free will is reflected upon through one's past intellectual imprints on the world/society?
So I need more research on Mr. Schopenhauer... I quickly reviewed

ah, but I see that Schopenhauer thinks that we are denied of the will do do whatever we want- or so this website says... however, if you review this particular page - the author falsifies Hume without much evidence.... I will look for more sources on FREE WILL
Regarding Schopenhauer's theory that there are motives for all courses of human action, there is an element that is very similar to Freud's concepts of the unconscious mind... OK done for now
