Contemplating again…

I’ve been trying to imagine the concept “nothing”. We use the word casually all the time without considering exactly what it is.

At first I pictured “nothing” as empty black space. But wait, empty black space is something. So that can’t be what nothing is. Nothing would have to be devoid of all the “somethings” in my imagination.

Was there ever a time, when all that existed was “nothing”? I mean “absolute” nothing. It couldn’t look like anything, otherwise it would be something. And if there were a “nothing” era, how did we get to this?

My only conclusion, though it boggles my brain even more,is that there has always been “something”. There has never been a time of “nothing”.

How can us Earthlings be anything but humble to the unimaginable?

Isn’t life miraculous?
