Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.
~William Wordsworth
My mind is completely black. I can think of nothing to write. Well, obviously I can think of something to write, as I am writing this right now, but nothing I can come up with seems remotely interesting, nor important. Or course, we must also view the fact that "nothing" is something, for anything with a name, at least, must be important enough to be acknowledged. So, when someone says "think about nothing", do they mean to think about the thing "nothing", or could they possibly want to give meaning to the fact that you are supposed to not be thinking about "anything"? Perhaps we simply want to empty our minds of all thoughts, to make it blank and see "nothing" but empty space. But space is indeed something. Anything, any idea or thought, that can be put into words, no matter how simple or complicated, is something. Even most things that cannot be expressed vocally are things, things as I have now mentioned three times in just one sentence. Actually, when you think about it, everything in existence or anything is called a "thing".
But of course, none of this changes the fact that I have nothing to write about.
