mikotodondria has a point.
"nothing" is a way too abstract concept as it could be expressed in a symbol. this thread is full of emptiness, but that´s a totally different thing from nothing if you think it through. nothing doesn´t exist in reality/nature, it exists only in mathematics I think. therefore there can´t be any fitting symbols that represent it, except for the mathematical ones.
- there are plenty of things that evoke the idea of 'nothing'._salisae_
- I really don´t think that we come across the real nothing in everyday life very often.********
- It´s more something for philosophers or theoretical mathematicians, no?********
- sure but we're talking about symbolism not philosophy_salisae_
- I hear you, but the symbols, the everyday symbols stand for something else, really?********
- Loss, emptyness, purity, stuff like that?********
- yes. this is true._salisae_
