    Of Questions and Questioning

    Let us look at the great metaphysical question of “How does Nothing become Something?” Or if we were to translate it into a more pragmatic phrasing, we can say: “How does one go from not writing into completing a written thing?” At the moment, two ways of going about this case comes to mind.
