Existence

It’s at the core of everything we are. Of all that matters. But what is it, exactly?

Here’s my theory, not that you asked.

We exist somewhere between everything (the universe) and nothing (the space between electrons). If we draw a line between 0 and infinity, what lies in the middle?

I call this midpoint: “5infinity”. It’s a paradox of state – of absolute and relative measure. Of nothing and everything… Of existence.

If we apply this to nominal values – “1”, “2”, etc… The number itself is absolute – perfectly defined. But the underlying character is that a number represents a quantity of interchangeable, arguably fungible items. But nothing is truly fungible. Even identical atoms have different positions in space and time. The inherent conflict presents itself – that something can exhibit absolute traits but still be subjected to relativity.

Perhaps my words cannot do this idea justice. But I believe it deserves to be known, somehow.
