Class Blog #1-Free Will

One of the major topics in Twilight is free will.  It seems that no matter what happens or what the outcome may be, Bella will always want to be with Edward.  She does however realize that it is her decision to be with Edward so this lets us know that the story COULD have ending differently.  Another way free will is brought up in this novel is through Edward and his family.  Even though they have the killer instincts of vampires and crave human blood, this branch of vampires choose not to.  Edward finds it almost unbearable to not sink his teeth into Bella but instead protects her and refrains from hurting her in any way.  Also, Alice has the ability to see into the future but her visions can change depending on what a person chooses to do.  Therefor the decisions that people make affect what will happen to them later in life..free will.

  1. Technically that is not free will. Free will is the ability to make choice without restraint or control from a force that is not you. What you are talking about is that every action has a reaction. Every time anyone does something there is a reaction to this that will affect this person later in life.
