#memento-mori

There is something deeply ironic about how only the thought of our deaths gives us reason to truly think about our lives. Memento mori is a tradition as old as it is haunting, and the brief encounters we have with our own mortality can stop us in our tracks, until life inevitably pulls us back into its folds and we regain our blissful ignorance about how the curtains will one day fall on us as they have on everyone else before us.
