I was hoping to find a fairly new thread, not more than a page long, that I could join in with - I've been away for a while. But there aren't any good ones, so I've made my own. This is a thread about nothing, but feel free to make it about something...

Something is the absence of nothing as nothing is the absence of something, so nothing is something.

as Sartre said, when you get down to being and nothingness, it's all existential to me.

How come something is the absence of nothing?

About nothing.

Actually, that is more complex than it seems at first glance.
I keep trying to focus my mind on nothing.

But then, there is this big empty there. Limitless nothing.
This is my brain on nothing.

Is nothing, in itself, something?

Wait a minute, JLN already said this.

Fine. Now I'll meditate on the nonduality of nothingness.

I just thought i would point out that an 'infinite' quantity of nothing (not just a 'lot'), is 'something'. Cool

[aw, shucks, it was nothing, really! Rolling Eyes]

My gf: "What are you thinking?"
me: "Nothing."
gf: "Sighhh....you are too."
me: "huh-uh...okay...I was just thinking how much I love you."
gf: "You were not. You weren't thinking anything. You were thinking about nothing"
me: Evil or Very Mad
