The question was one presented to me in a class. While the answer was immediately “Yes,” I realized later the instructor was implying something greater. The importance of documentation is, in part, so we don’t forget, as a species. The way the world is now, is not the way the world will be in 10, 50, 100 years. I exist above the earthen ground, held up by those in the soil who came before me. I will join them, someday, but while I am here, I may document not just my life, but the world that I exist in, so that the ones I hold up from my future place in the soil, can know the things I experience in this world the way it is, right now.
