Is a Jar of Peanut Butter the Best Way to Describe Me?

Sure every time I go out I spread a little bit of myself on those that I interact with. And I really spread it on thick when I share my opinion and life story with someone. But the idea of a jar of peanut butter makes it sound like when I take some of myself out and share it with another person, I am losing that part. I know that I am constantly filling my jar, but do I have to be constantly emptying it to take more in? I also feel that I can share the same thing more than once, spreading myself even farther, but I can't do this if I already took that peanut butter out. I just don't feel that a jar of peanut butter is the best way to describe the way we take in our experiences and share those with others.

One way that I think makes it easier to understand, especially in this generation is texting (please don't think of me as a huge texter, I don't even text everyday, it's just the first thing that I thought of). Okay, here goes: For texting there is an inbox and an outbox and a phone saves all of the texts you send and recieve. You can then forward previous texts you have sent or recieved. You always get new texts and you keep your old texts, at least for a period of time. After a period of time or when the inbox and outbox get too full the oldest ones will be deleted, just like memories. But if a text really important you save that one and it will always be there, until you delete it. I just feel this is a better way to describe how people share themselves with those around them, but yet are ableto keep some of themselves.
