It's the fear of nothingness that gets me. I know, a strange thing to fear, but
it seems like I find myself sliding towards nihilism.

I recently downloaded this ebook from a public domain site (the book is nearly
100 year old) and I have to say I'm very impressed with it. Underhill was an
ANglo-Catholic, but her main focus is on how anyone can appreciate the
mysticism of everyday life by seeing the world as it is, without
cat
Some thing to pay attention to then, this fear. Watch it coming and going. What
we start out as thinking of as negative emotions often have a lot of our life's
energy tied up with them.

Perhaps you should look at it as not as nothingness but rather
as completeness. Wholeness, so complete that shape cannot contain it.

I guess I look at it entirely in material terms, so I have trouble wrapping my
head around that.
