Absolutely. In fact, sounds like what I've always thought that it SHOULD be like. Ironically, it's shaping up to be exactly like that after all, so I really can't complain.

I'd have to agree with the whole dying aspect,I don't want to know when my number is up so the whole 25 years I would be miserable knowing for sure on that specific date I would die. I honeslty think people would become better people knowing there time was up. Thats just it though, you never know but tomorrow is never promised to us.....

Ahhhh, but the question presupposes that this phenomenon would somehow even allow you to be ok with thought of knowing about your final day. Or maybe when your wish is granted you'd forget about the deal.

Point is - no matter what, you'd be content and/or in total bliss

Hell no... the spice of life would be missing.

You'd be probably bored out of your mind after 4 years and in the 7th year, you'd start looking for ways to get out of this devils bargain...

We are not designed to be content for a very long time, we need excitement, dangers, change and challenges. Only that way we grow as humans and our souls as well.

are you saying that I've been living a lie for the past 7 years? lol - just kidding

However I will say this - one can argue that excitement can certainly fall under the "content" umbrella. It ought not be assumed that only adversity presents challenges.

Also, for some people even some hardships are not viewed as burdensome - as such, they would not necessarily be bored all the time and can, thus remain content.

just a thought

I mean really, living your life in content is your choice. There is always the chance that you are going to die the next day. "Live everyday of your life like it's your last". I mean yes, you do get alot of "speed bumps" on the way, but really happiness is a choice!

Kill me now,  another one of those positive freaks.   Are the mods sleeping again?
