Hi denmarkguy, very interesting thoughts. My personal opinion to this recording things is the inner will to express yourself, to show "the world" the beauty of your own life, that exists only one time and will ever stay this forever.
When I take part through comments or posts it´s my personal intention to give something personal from myself to make the life of other people more complete, to resonate with them...give them a feeling of being connected with all things around them.
Words and pictures are a great way to touch ones soul and connect to someone.
Thank you for the text. It inspired me, too, to reflect my actions here at steem and generally.
