Death, If You Could See It Coming?

TypoMage
Death,
If you could see it coming?

What if you could see it coming would you want to, know? My answer would have to be no. For all any of you know your death could come tommorow! sad.gif
Unfortunately there is no way of proving that what if there was. If someone invented a device that said when you died, ( Not how ) Would you use it?
I wouldn't I mean who wants to know the exact month, day, and time of their own death?

So.... Would you want to know? ( Either way it would not come any quicker or slower smile.gif )

No Im fine not knowing.
Its bad enough knowing that eventually you will die. Knowing when would proably drive me crazy, Id probably go out and do all the stuf I was afraid to do, heck who knows I might just wind up getting myself killed be fore its time.
Not to mention what would happen after I died, Id be worried about going to hell, where Id be burried, who would get my stuff, how to take care of my loved ones.
See its already driving me crazy.

I have no interest of knowing when I will die or how will I die or something like that.. even if somehow I know when I day, I won't be necessary to think it, just let it flow with the time, then face it when it comes.

well why should we affraid of death.. we can't run from it, so it's better to face it wink.gif

I would want to know when my death is coming; unless, they telling me 80 years earlier...But it would be great if they would tell me of my death 1 week earlier. I would get ready for the death. Like, say good-bye to everybody I know. And eventually do some good things that I have never gotten to do over the years in my life.

So, I think it'll be pretty cool to know when you'd die. biggrin.gif I'd try to be cool with it and all and just donate everything I have away.

I, for one, would think it's gonna be cool to know when I'd die. I could prepare for death, make funerary arrangements and stuff like that. (I don't want to lie down on a boring coffin/casket 6 feet under, I want to be "on my feet" in an obelisk of moderate height happy.gif)

A few hours before I die, I'd gather all my friends together for one last party. I'd be the greatest host I have never been. Then a few minutes before I die, I'd sing for them. I'm still having difficulties choosing which song to sing. For one, there's Don McLean's American Pie:

"This will be the day that I die. This will be the day that I die..."

Then, there's also our national anthem Lupang Hinirang by Julian Felipe. The last lines go:

"Aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo."
(...but it is glory ever when thou art wronged for us thy sons to suffer and die.)

Someone already did this before (in a movie) but she forced her death by overdosing on drugs before singing her last song. Another character, Selma (Bjork) from Dancer in the Dark, sang her last song before she was executed.

Gawd, I was so moved by that movie. Y'know what? Forget the obelisk and the the last party (or last supper, whichever), so long as I get to sing one last song before I die. I'd know exactly when I'd die and when I do, people will remember me as the one who sang "that morbidly chilling song so appropriate, it's as if he sensed what was coming." Not that spectacular, but still great and no one will be the wiser happy.gif

No, I don't have a great voice, though. I'm no performer or diva tongue.gif

personally id hate to know when i was going to die, i think it would be quite scary to see death as well as you dont know what it will look like - it could look like you see in the movies or it could be something totally different.

If people knew when they were going to die lots of people would probably go crazy and try to get all things done that they currently have not done.

It has its advantages knowning when you are going to die. I would try to do everything i wanted to, and i would enjoy at maximun my last moments in the earth. Also, if that device were going to tell me that my death is 70 years far, would be really pleasant biggrin.gif but if it tells you that is only 1 year far, then there had be a real problem. I would now know what to do and it would live that last 1 year with a procupation and somewhat depressed.

Is better now to know, i think, but thats why everybody should enjoy their lifes as much as they can, even if they death is near or not.

Yeah it would be cool if you will simply die.. I mean die in your sleep..

What if you will know the cause of death and it would say that you will be murdered or run over by a train or perhaps tortured first before murdered?

i'm halfway with this. i mean i guess everyone's with me when i say i'm terrified to see how and when i'm going to die. i don't think anyone who would see how they'd die would say "cool". moreover, i'm not going to be "good" because i know i'm going to die soon. i still would act the same, only enjoy stuff a bit more. i would probably say sorry to some people but as to being good to make up for things, i probably won't. but then again if you're dying, i think that's the only thing you would want to do, right?

now, if there's a way that i could prevent it from happening, i probably would. i have this sort of belief that i got from one show i was watching before, that if you're next on death's list, you can't avoid it, it means it's your time. if you try and cheat death, it will come to you again and again until you're "taken". but then again that's probably some hearsay.

hmm.. this is a very good question

i mean no one wants to know when they are going to die because then you are just going to be waiting for it to happen.. and you are basically going to live your life in fear anticipating for that one moment to come when your whole life just ends. Knowing would really creep me out and i would probably want to stay in my house.. or not i would be scared of everything wondering what exactly is going to do it... what is going to kill me. So knowing that much information could make a person go mad. On the other hand i would probably love knowing so that i could do everything i wanted in time for my death.. like bungee jumping. I would apologive to everyone if i did them wrong. And i would tell my parents i want to be cremated.. maybe even give back to the community. Make use of my time since i do know when its going to end.. might as well put the rest of it to good use... i would also want to do my gf every 5 seconds..

OHTm what a scary question to ask. Actually maybe i would want to know maybe i wouldn't it's a toguh decision ( luckily you gave us a maybe option to vote laugh.gif). But still it would be nice to knwo to prepare and it would be horifying to know especially if you know how your gonna go. Well anyway i don';t want to know at this stage it comes to a certain stage whrer you mmust know sometime. Arggh i hate death
