Attempting to relax after work, with my husband nearby also toiling with an excess of thoughts. One day is hardly finished, and I am already thinking about the work of the next. WORK the four letter word, it can't be what life is about! However, some days it does seem difficult to focus on the incredible gifts that we have in life, like the love of an ultimate companion.
So to rearrange my thoughts, here I am following in the footsteps of so many before me...
The prevalence of blogs on the web has almost forcibly grabbed my interest. I suppose that the appeal is somewhat similar to what attracted millions to Sinefeld, which by definition is a show about nothing.
Blogs, for the majority of the mainstream, are about absolutely nothing at all. In fact, many blog titles have encorporated the word "nothing" into their titles. However, I find myself scrolling through page after page, practically on the edge of my seat (I fear that this speaks to the lack of substance I have created in my own life!!).
If someone could help me to understand why humans, such as myself, are so fascinated with nothing, I would be much abliged. Any discussion on this topic is welcome...in fact I would go so far as to say any discussion on anything is welcome.

NIce chubster. Enjoy seeing your thoughts.
I think humans obsess over nothing because it does not exist. Even in death, the end of a life for which everything stops, we keep going by making stories - creating a new path to continue into the unknown.
Humans should not include the word nothing in any culture because we never stop. Everything, the opposite of nothing, is the only truth I'm concerned with.
Oh, and it's ironic that when I'm zoned or whatever to do a certain kind of work, for example, getting back to the dozens of people close to me, I can't because I'm at work, supposed to be working on work stuff, not personal stuff. Time is short in many ways. Grrr.
Your blog will be about nothing if you never post anything.
