What is nothing? That is a question that many people have asked over the years. When most people think of nothing, they think of the absence of something. It is a question that no one has ever been able to answer because our minds cannot truly comprehend nothing. But still, we seek the answer, and like many others before me, I have come no closer to the truth. I, however, have thought about it many times before. And so I have come up with an answer that is no closer to the truth than any other person. And so, here are my ramblings about what I think is nothing.
What is nothing? It is the absence of something or everything. A great example of this is the universe. The universe is constantly expanding, so there must be a place that the universe can expand into. That is the great expanse of nothing. And so nothing becomes everything when the universe touches it. But how can that happen? For nothing to become something, there as to already be something to change into something else or everything. So how can nothing exist without something to make it nothing. But the universe is not nothing. The everything of the universe is what makes nothing because there cannot be something in nothing while there is already something to be everything.
Nothing makes no sense; just as everything makes no sense. How can there be everything if everything ends? For everything to be everything, there cannot be an end to everything or something. So how does nothing become something? There has to be something in nothing.
Nothing is something because nothing is a concept just like something and everything are concepts. So for nothing to be like something and everything it has to be real. But since nothing is real, nothing now becomes something because real cannot be nothing without being something. Therefore, nothing is something. But the something that nothing is; that is the real mystery.
