Hello Erwin,
It’s moments like these, brushes with mortality, that make us appreciate life and what we can mean for others.
Well put, your “ultimate KPI.”

Thanks for the comment Leo.
One of the things that surprised me is that not many people use these moments to appreciate and celebrate life. Let alone to use the emotion and energy for something positive.
Hope this helps some people see the brushes with mortality a bit different now

I like the sense of the funeral as an ultimate-KPI. Historically people thought more about “Who will be present and what will they say at my funeral.” during their lifetime. This was much more common before globalization hit the earth. I am not against it, but its mechanic wheels damaged a lot of the long term thinking of people about their lifetime on earth. However, i must add here my another suitable title for this post. “Dead-line: The funeral”
A lot of people speak about deadlines, which they have to catch. I must always ask myself, if they really understand the first noun in this word.
