The proverbial question that has plagued mankind, humankind, or all of us rather: Is it possible to create something out nothing? Absolutely!
Conventional, or parochial thought will have you believe that this paradox is not possible, while scientists, now more than ever, contend that enough empirical evidence exists in this world to validate this assumption/assertion.
I had never been a believer of creating something out of nothing & I'm not even throwing the religious "wrench" or spin on it, I'm just coming at it from a practical standpoint...
Well, another epiphany hit me today... Previously, I would have argued that something out of nothingness doesn't stand to ration, especially against the Socratic Questioning method or approach. "Just doesn't pan out..." until, I applied it to my ownself. Just stick with me for a moment before you dismiss this, I'll explain.
Its an elementary example but here it goes. When we are down in our luck, hit rock bottom beyond any point of return, have no more strength, lost all hope or will to survive, basically, that point where you're just down in the dumps where NOTHING is seemingly possible; We (the human spirit) always, let me repeat, always, have the ability to muster up some inner strength, motivation, or spark - drum rolls please & get this - out of where, nowhere! Yep, & so there you have it: something (will or drive) out of nothing (pessimism or surrender).
"What? Ah, that's cheesy - no way, not the same thing" you're probably saying. Well, let me throw it back at you. Why not? Why is it not the same? I'll admit, its a far-fetched example but the analogy is still based on the same premise: creating something out of nothing.
Its been my observation, that our human body/spirit is nothing more than a sheer reflection of our universe, our galaxy, our solar system, our planet, our world & so on, seriously. Lets take the human body/spirit as a comparison model or subject, in my opinion, if you expand or scale it up, it helps shed light on the grandioseness & striking similarities w/ our universe. Think about it for a moment. Human composition, at the kernel level is fire, the catalyst or special something that makes us go, an engine so-to-speak. Some refer to it as our spirit. Our planet, which we refer to as mother earth, also has a fiery core, a furnace. The sun, if you propagate my example, at its core is nothing more than a ball of fire that powers up our solar system & the very place we all live in, planet earth.
So how does this preceding, universal human body/spirit, example relate to "something out of nothing"? Well, it is my contention that we all possess "something", be it spirit, fire, initiative, drive or whatever you want to call it to generate & spark "something out of nothing."
To be continued... This blog is not complete - it is working-in-progress ... yeah, yeah, so quit your belly aching! :0) you know I love you!
