"Will" is a word in ENGLISH
Arbitrary disposal; power to control, dispose, or determine.
Strong wish or inclination; desire; purpose.
To give or direct the disposal of by testament; to bequeath;
to devise; as, to will one's estate to a child; also, to order or
direct by testament; as, he willed that his nephew should have his
watch.
That which is strongly wished or desired.
To wish; to desire; to incline to have.
As an auxiliary, will is used to denote futurity dependent
on the verb. Thus, in first person, \"I will\" denotes willingness,
consent, promise; and when \"will\" is emphasized, it denotes
determination or fixed purpose; as, I will go if you wish; I will go at
all hazards. In the second and third persons, the idea of distinct
volition, wish, or purpose is evanescent, and simple certainty is
appropriately expressed; as, \"You will go,\" or \"He will go,\" describes
a future event as a fact only. To emphasize will denotes (according to
the tone or context) certain futurity or fixed determination.
To exercise an act of volition; to choose; to decide; to
determine; to decree.
The legal declaration of a person's mind as to the manner in
which he would have his property or estate disposed of after his death;
the written instrument, legally executed, by which a man makes
disposition of his estate, to take effect after his death; testament;
devise. See the Note under Testament, 1.
To enjoin or command, as that which is determined by an act
of volition; to direct; to order.
The choice which is made; a determination or preference which
results from the act or exercise of the power of choice; a volition.
The choice or determination of one who has authority; a
decree; a command; discretionary pleasure.
To be willing; to be inclined or disposed; to be pleased;
to wish; to desire.
The power of choosing; the faculty or endowment of the soul
by which it is capable of choosing; the faculty or power of the mind by
which we decide to do or not to do; the power or faculty of preferring
or selecting one of two or more objects.
To form a distinct volition of; to determine by an act of
choice; to ordain; to decree.
And no wonder; for the new technique of "subliminal projection," as it was called, was intimately associated with mass entertainment, and in the life of civilized human beings massed entertainment now plays a part comparable to that played in the Middle Ages be religion.
WORD SUGGESTIONS
A pious man who had reached the age of 105 suddenly stopped going to synagogue. Alarmed by the old fellow's absence after so many years of faithful attendance the Rabbi went to see him. He found him in excellent health, so the Rabbi asked, "How come after all these years we don't see you at services anymore?"The old man looked around and lowered his voice. "I'll tell you, Rabbi," he whispered. "When I got to be 90, I expected God to take me any day. But then I got to be 95, then 100, then 105. So I figured that God is very busy and must've forgotten about me, and I don't want to remind Him!"
