I was meditating the other day and my mind started to wander. I usually try to bring my focus back to my breath when that happens, but this time I just let it wander to see where it would go.

I started thinking about how to define "nothing" and came to the conclusion that you can't define "nothing" because as soon as you do, it becomes something.
