Memento Mori — Remember You *Must* Die.

Not “you might die.”

Not “someday.”

Not “if you’re unlucky.”

You will die.

This is the ultimate liberation.

Because once you accept death, you’re finally free to live.

You stop caring about what others think. You stop waiting. You stop hesitating.

You create, you speak, you lift, you love, you act — with urgency.

Your time is limited, so your attention becomes sacred.

You cut out the noise.

You quit email.

You delete Instagram.

You shoot street photos today — not “once you get a better camera.”

You start the business.

You ask the girl out.

You write the book.

You say no to anything that doesn’t align with your soul, because your life is a ticking clock.

Memento Mori is not morbid.

It’s clarity.

It’s power.

It’s the sharp sword that cuts through procrastination, fear, and bullshit.

Memento Mori is the most beautiful idea in the world.

Because once you remember that you must die,

you finally remember how to live.
