How do we get 'Will '?

How come we have 'will' and can express that in our willful actions and the particles that we say 'not alive' don't have it?

This is a very interesting question since all living organisms are made up of same particles that make our universe. We are just different shapes & combinations of the same matter that is spread across universe. So why is it the we can perform things willfully and the particles can not. Why don't they get a fair share of 'will' ? Or do they?

Free will theorem by John Conway & Simon Kochen, proves that if we have free will so does every particle. But does not help me to apply the same logic here to 'will'. (http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0604079). I feel this is a question that is worth exploring.

Does every particle have a will? What is it that creates will in living beings that comprise of particles that do not have will.
