Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Here's a lovely thought: You are like a donut. The hole in the middle of the donut is composed of nothing; and that which surrounds the hole is something. Your body is the food part; you are the hole of nothingness. The food part will rot and transform into something else, eventually. But the hole will remain. Just for fun....imagine what it would be like to be a donut. Mmmm. Doh-nut. Hehe.
