When you fall asleep at night, how often do you feel afraid that you won't wake up again? Surprisingly most people are never afraid when they fall asleep at night. Yet I find that very bizarre. I myself am not afraid when I drop off the face of the Earth and lose all concept of consciousness, space and time for eight hours each night. In my opinion when people ask, 'what is nothing? How can we imagine nothing?' Sleep is nothing. When you sleep there is nothing because you are not conscious. You don't even exist, nothing exists when you sleep. The universe disappears. Even dreams are not remembered until you wake up the next morning. Some people are able to 'know' they're dreaming yet still, the majority of sleep is complete and utter nothingness. True nothingness, something which physicists and philosophers claim is impossible to have in our universe. But to you (and only you), when you fall asleep at night, there is nothing, no time, no space. And if you didn't wake up? Well you would never know if you didn't wake up, because there would be nothing left to remember, there would be no act of remembering. And I sure hope that isn't what death is. That would be disappointing. So next time you fall asleep just remember that you are about to expierence nothingness in it's truest form. And hope to God that you wake up the next morning.
