During a group session this afternoon.

"Two weeks ago we talked about motivation and what motivate us. Anybody likes to add to their list of motivation?"

"Death." A voice from a corner.

I barely heard the voice. All the eyes on him.

"Death? Would you like to talk more about it?"

"I don't want nobody find my bloated dead body somewhere in a gutter. I don't want my dead body left for days in a morgue. I don't want that. That's why I'm here."

That is why we should attend funerals. To help keep us "motivated."

Disarming honesty, I'd say. Good for him for shaking everyone up. Including us.
