Nothing

admittedly ... I have trouble accepting the existence of nothing not because I'm so grounded in reality (or what my puny mind defines as substance) but because, with all the beautiful mass in the Universe I just plain find it highly unlikely ... oh, equations exist to the contrary (and I could discuss the importance of the number "zero" all day) but what equation exists that didn't arise from another and progress into something more complex? entropy's ultimate answer? far too much going on ... and chaos is disorder, which requires something strings vibrate in directions and complexities decided on by the number of dimensions they exist in if there are limits to those dimensions it is because they are measurable and measurement can not arise from void or vacuum or that which chaos represents as nothing is it possible? absolutely ... but I could say that just by stating the possibility of nothing's existence I have divined proof of its impossibility as a starting point for the Universe? even more unlikely, in my opinion for even if matter could be birthed from absence of matter that would require something to initiate it still ... when I imagine the state of existence that I was in before I was born ... (a state I wish I could say I didn't believe I'm returning to) that is as close to a definition of "nothing" as I can imagine ... oh, for a quantum tunnel ... to heaven.
