I agree with you. Each day has a reason for us to smile because when we are gone, we created sweet memories for those who still live.

Can you imagine, though, the conversations that could come from that?
"No, sorry, I can't go with you to your best friend's wedding, I'll be dying that day. Want to come hang out now?"
"My dog walking services will be ending September 14th as I will be meeting my maker. But I am happy to walk Bobo up until the day before!"
"I'm dying next week so all I'm doing this week is binge watching The Office as many times as possible."

your right! you will die easily because you know the end of your life instead of enjoying for the last moment of your life. high blood pressure might rise up easily.Britt_patch99 wrote: ↑24 Mar 2018, 17:09 I would not want to know when I would die, I just feel that would lead to anxiety and always freaking out that that moment is closer. I honestly don't think I would be happy especially if it turned out closer than expected.

But the con, which is what I assume the human nature would get more inclined to commit is trying to change the truth. Trying to do something about it even after knowing we can't. This would lead to devastation, exploitation and brutality.
Thus, I prefer not getting to know when I'll breathe my last because it might then kill the essence of living due to the fear of dying.
