Everything

It has long occurred to me that many times we take very simple things for granted. Specifically, we take basic functions for granted. Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead's foundational mathematical exploration the Principia Mathematica proves at length that one plus one does, in fact, equal two. Thus, it is entirely too important to understand very small things so we are able to cogently articulate larger things. I title this "That Which is the Nature of Non-Existence."

It is altogether impossible for anything to exist in non-existence. Not even non-existence can exist in non-existence as this admits an existence of that which would occupy nothing, as nothing is still a thing in the sense that it is that which is the absence of all things. Thus, the universe and even existence itself cannot be thought of in static terms as space in any sense does not exist outside of the universe. As such, our universe cannot be thought of as confined in a finite space, rather our universe is a possible infinite space and anything existing outside of our universe would then become a non-sequiter. Many times we view our universe as a ball of light in a sea of darkness that houses our universe. This cannot be if that space that holds our universe is non-existence. This is also opposed to the notion of something that does not exist, as that which does not exist holds within it the possibility for existence as it has already existed or could exist in the future. Thus, non-existence is the absence of all things, the absence of nothing, removing all forms from it, the existent probability, possibility, qualitative, quantitive self.

I wrote this a long time ago.
I still like it.
