Nothing was absolute. And that was troubling. Troublesomeness was not nothing, and nothing attempted to dispel the feeling. However, an attempt to dispel something, indeed, an attempt to do anything is not nothing, and the nothingness faded further. It was much less nothing, now, and almost certainly something. In fact, it was even somewhere, now. It was troubled.

Irritated by this troublesomeness, and further irritated by the irritation which further dispelled the blissful nothingness which had been, nothing, nothing at all attempted to understand what had been troubling in the first place. Perhaps the mere absoluteness of nothing was troubling. Absoluteness is something, not nothing.

That realization brought nothing further to something. So close, in fact, that nothing felt close to a revelation, which would, in fact, be the end of nothing and nothing knew it. And that understanding brought fear. Which further brought about less nothing.

Nothing was lucky that Rene Descartes was not there... Nothing felt drawn inexorabily toward the moment of epiphany of insight.
