Law of existence...
I was just thinking really deeply about why anything exists at all... Actually. I think about this question all the time. It has really really boggled my mind for a long long time.
I think i may have stumbled onto something here that kind of... Gives me a sense of satisfaction about not only why anything exists... But about the NATURE of existence.
Essentially what im asking is why is there something rather than nothing... Well ive had the realization before that nothing, cannot exist by the definition of nothingness and the defintion of existence.
But i just took that thought a step further and yielded a statement... A statement with a contrapositive which i believe has some pretty interesting insight into the question of why reality exists as we know it. My reasoning is as follows
If you had yourself a heaping plate of true nothingness... Okay thats a joke... If there were truly nothing... That would mean there were no limits, boundaries or rules. There would be nothing to prevent things from occuring. Nothing is inherently unstable. Nothing is literally infinite potential, and no boundary to stop that potential from occurring.
Nothing, is powerless to resist existence.
What is interesting to me is the contrapositive of this sentence...
Anything has the power to resist existence.
It seems to me this is true in the universe. Things decay... Things die.. things change... Things emerge then diffuse...
It is this statement and its contrapositive which gives the universe its tempo.
I feel like i stumbled upon the law of existence.
Thoughts?
