Original Thought On Cleaning, I Think

I will go so far as to claim that I believe the following to be an original thought that I've come up with on my very own. I will say that it would not surprise me to find that someone out there, present or past, has said, implied, or thought something similar to it.

The process of cleaning is essentially to erase the proof of your existance. That is to say, your home is supposed to look as though you've furnished it and then left. The lack of dust is a sign that some supernatural force has made sure to preserve the home's integrity. Something like God making the moon without so much as a footprint to show he was ever there. Mankind landed and now no one or no thing will every forget we were there. I have an innate fear of being forgotten.
