"Death gives rise to meaning" can have many interpretations. One of the most common is that death makes life finite.  Each of us only have so many movements in our life, so we should look to get the most out of life by living a meaningful life. 

Conversely, if you had an infinity, it would not matter much what you did, because you could do everything, which would mean that nothing really matters all that much.

How do you consider interpretation of the cache? For example, 
"Death gives rise to meaning" can be interpreted in many different ways, as some can see it as inspiring while others as meaningless, confusing or untrue.
