I always habitually attempt to define what I perceive and look for images or words that match them in our minds to align them with subjective cognition. But the concept of "nothing" is so contradictory. If you try to define it, it's turn out to be a paradox like what Francis Mckee wrote: "each attempt to consider the idea of nothing reveals yet another 'thing' or 'entity'" . In the scene of being at the funeral of a loved one, or perhaps in a daze in the night sky, the indescribable sense of loss is the closest experience to "nothing" that I can retrieve in my memory. I was always unconsciously leaning "nothing" towards a particular event with carrying some mood or atmosphere. Nevertheless, I did not know that "nothing" has become "something" at the moment when the thought flows.

When my cognition is involved in developing things, they have been placed into a structure that allows me to understand easily. The knowledge formed by the "names" learned in the past constitutes an invisible frame for the world I saw. Even if I am just a tiny creature live on a small planet in the vast universe, this little nest of knowledge appears so unbreakable in daily life. In September 1977, Andy Warhol held an exhibition of his collection of American folk art that he called "Folk and Funk" at the New York Museum of American Folk Art. In an interview with the New York Times, he stated that his favourite design was an eighteenth-century pale blue door and doorframe. He said: "I like the door best... You can go in and out of it and still go nowhere." This is a very humorous answer, but it also reveals that people are meaning makers -- they use walls and doors to divide the space into rooms with different meanings.
