It is often used to encourage people to live their lives in a meaningful way, to focus on what is most important, and to not waste time on things that are not important. Memento mori has a long history, dating back to ancient Rome, where it was a common practice to be reminded of one’s own mortality. It has been used by various cultures and religions throughout history and is still commonly used today as a way to encourage people to live their lives to the fullest.
