The flip of this is that there would be nothing you could do to prevent it. It was a set thing. No matter what else you did circumstances and events would change to make sure that you met your fate in the way and at the time specified.
For example even if you attempted suicide before the prescribed time and date you would fail through some event outside of your control. You would still suffer, it would change things. For example if you tried to shoot yourself in the head to avoid your fate a bird might hit the window at the exact moment startling you and throwing off your aim so you only disfigure yourself. Or the gun malfunctions. Or the trigger breaks instead.
It would probably be good for me to know, I'd likely procrastinate less and live more for the moment and enjoy things, instead of getting caught up in ridiculous quests and work and...idk.
But I'm torn between the two choices. I desire not to know. But when it comes down to it...I'd probably pick to know. It feeds my control freak side. Knowledge is power.
I don't need all your additional conditions at the end. I wouldn't want to know. I'm living my life the way I want to now. Whether I die tomorrow or sixty years from now is not going to change the way I'm living my life today.
@waleskinder: I haven't seen it. Is that basically the plot? Or is it the opposite? They should have died and didn't so now they will all die in a short time.
