8/27/2020

''Memento vivere' is a Latin saying rendered in English as 'remember to live', 'remember life', or 'wake up to the life you have to live.'  In other words, life now!​  Memento vivere is the flip-side of memento mori -- 'remember mortality'.  After all, what is the life each of us has to live?  From big existential questions to the little tasks each of us does every day, life can be difficult.  Life is difficult.  Meanwhile, life is also a blessing and the greatest, luckiest gift.'

-Memento Vivere: Life, Now project notes, p. 1, by b.b.c.
