there are people who want to know when they will die, so that they can manage their life and do what they want until the day of there death, i actually afraid to know when will i die, it could only makes me uncomfortable,and the days will going faster for me. i just live my life to the fullest and i will love my family and my friends, do what i need to do and do all my obligation, so that when the day of my death will come, i can still smile and happy because i did my part. do you want to know when will you die? for what purpose/s? what will you do if you already know when will you die?

Nope I would not want to know. I would be more afraid and do more wrong. Tryin to live this so called life of mine. It would be like playing a vedio game you already know whats coming next that would suck from my point of view. I dont want to know when I will die nor how I will die.

I think it makes it easier to cross over if we don't know when it is going to hit us.

Yes, I think it would be a good idea if we all knew when we would die. Of course we wouldn’t be able to change the moment, we’ll only know the moment. For one, I would know how long I have to live, secondly, we all could plan our life more effectively and thirdly, maybe the world would become a better place if we all knew that by this and this moment we would die, so everybody would try and do good things.

No i don't want to know that when i will die. I believe if i know that then maybe it will disturbance for my life what i don't want. I know one day i will day and it could be within one second this things will ask me to don't do wrong and do good things. But if i come to know that i will die tomorrow then may be i will be so sad and can't do my things properly. Good day!

I think somehow this would be scary on my part knowing that i would die someday at a certain time. However, it will give me time to prepare and make my life meaningful and live it to the fullest.

I do not want to know this. This will decrease the interests of life and may create a specific goal. I wan to a diversified life and it will not be possible if i know the date of my expiry. I want to enjoy the day, keeping in mind that i may expire tomorrow. we can not enjoy the present day, if we know the expiry date, because everyday we may think "i have more days to live".

yes i think if there wll the possibility to know when i will die it would be really useful to organize all the life better..in many cases people are worried about the future because they can't know how much time they should live in reality and so may be they can renounce to many things...in this way everybody can manage better their lives..

Greetings! Yes. I would like to know when will I die so that I can prepare myself and spend quality time with my family and friends. I would also have time to say goodbye to them so that they can also prepare themselves because I don't want them to cry when I die. At least they know that it will happen so they're ready. Another reason is that because of this, I have an excuse to enjoy life. I will tell them that I'm about to die so they would understand me why I'm doing things that can make me happy. :)

Even I wanted to know when, I still cannot do anything to know it, No one can know it. So why worry? Everybody will have their turn, so enjoy life and make each day a meaningful one. So that when that time comes, you won't regret that you didn't do such things while you are still alive.

I have never thought about this matter. But I don't want to know when I'll die. It's not importance to me. Because I always try to live well everyday. I do everything I like. I work to earn for living and love my family, my friends etc.. I think I won't have any regret things if I'll die in the future...

what a harsh discussion.. But anyways, for me I think I don't want to know when will I die because it makes me feel very anxious about the time and the things I do. It's very hard for me to enjoy my existence when I know when will I die. But in case if I will know it I think I'll just spend it wisely with God, my family and friends.

for me i dont want to know when i will die , knowing when will you die gives you more tension , and probably you will plan your everyday life until you die. just living without knowing when will you die is great , just living the way you like , not worrying about "I will die on that Date". if i know when i will die , if i will die like 3 - 5 years on the day im living right now. ill probably just probably repent to all the sins i made and enjoy living. but if i will die about 50 - 60 years more , i will just continue living a normal life. dying in the age of 70 - 80 is already a blessing to you.

Actually, no I don't. That way I can live every day like it was my last. If I knew I would probably be depressed. Some things are just better left unknown... Knowing the day you will be gone might help you prepare but still, doesn't feel right. I'd rather just leave it up to god, luck, etc. whatever you believe in.

No, it wouldn't matter anyway. I will just live my life because even if you knew there is no way to prepare for it. I would rather just live life and when its my time I'll be at peace with it. They say that they can predict how you are going to die such as illnesses but they don't account for accidents like car crashes and such.

It is appointed unto all men to die. It is an accepted reality. Nevertheless, I think I would not want to know the exact date of my departure. I would rather just live each day of my life like as if it is the last so that I could live a productive life and as much as possible could not leave anything undone till the day the Lord calls me home.

i don't like to know when i die because it cause me afraid and always conscious to my life. I think i will be afraid every time. It is better for me not to know when it will happen. I will prepare what i need when this day come but to know the time exactly i'm afraid.

I would not want to know when I was going to die. I don't think I could take the pain or anticipation of knowing. I know this day will some dat come. I would rather not know when it is here.

No I do not want to know when I am going to die. I am not afraid of it either. When it is my time to go it is my time to go.
