The world is on fire... Memento ardere.
Remember to burn, human.
You're a human being.
Your existence shall inevitably end one day or another, but what will you let stay alive behind you?
Leave a trail.
A mark.
Something of yours.
Make it known that you've lived.
You were here for a reason.
Why let it be forgotten?
Why let time swallow your existence as if you were nothing?
Memento ardere.
Remember to burn.
Who? What? Why?
Not necessarily someone.
Not necessarily something.
Burn for the sake of the flame and the trail you'll leave behind, making it known that you too existed once.
Not everyone can control the fire, but most of us can set it.
In someone's mind.
Someone's heart.
Make a piece of that flame known, for a while at least.
Memento ardere.
Remember to burn, because you shall get burnt one way or another.
Someone or something will one day burn you without you even wanting it.
And you'll end up sitting there, questioning the nature of the flame.
There's nothing you can question about the fire.
It burns
