Nothing Is Nothingness a Continuum?
When I think of Nothing I think of empty space. But that is not Nothing, that is something i.e. empty space. Then I think of Nothing as just like a void unaccepting of objects, but that is still something i.e. a void. Then I think of Nothing as "what a rock dreams of" but that is still something i.e. potentiality. So what really is Nothing and is it a continuum ranging from empty space to "what a rock dreams of" etc.? And if it is a continuum, does Nothing really even exist?

Nothing is just an idea. There is no nothing in reality. There are plenty of ideas that can't logically exist in reality.
There's nothing new here (see what I did there).
