Little Deposits in Your Bank
Have you ever wondered why we all record our lives in so many ways?
It's a way to solidify our temporary existence through our earthly phase.
If we can hold on to any proof we have that we've been here,
We find that very crucial; otherwise we have no proof we've been here.
We're always so neatly filing memories to hold our past and present together,
Each lightly tied to our today so we can still feel we've got it together.
It's our subconscious realizing the continuity of time and soul
Where we've stored all memories from days and times of old.
So even though our present life is only here for the "short haul,"
We instinctively feel the tie to the past as insurance and proof we're here at all.
And you eventually leave all physical evidence behind.
You'll still be taking the memory in your soul and in your mind.
