The Dance Between All That Is and All That Isn't

There are but two things: infinity and nothing. Infinity is composed of all that is, and nothing is composed of all that isn't.

If a system is growing towards infinity, this means that it is not in equilibrium with its environment. As a result, such a system receives more energy from its environment than it releases to its environment. This energy is synonymous with mass. Simply put:

For m=0 → ∞, m_in > m_out

As it grows, however, it becomes more at equilibrium with its environment, causing its rate of growth to slow down until it reaches equilibrium and it stops growing. In other words:

For m=∞, m_in = m_out

As its growth stops, it then begins to release more energy than it receives. Meaning:

For m=∞ → 0, m_out > m_in

As it approaches zero, it once more approaches equilibrium. As a result, this causes its rate of energy loss to slow down until it reaches equilibrium and stops:

For m=0, m_in = m_out

And so the system begins the process of growth anew. Over and over, this dance between all that is and all that isn't continues.

As a function of time, this mass can be plotted as follows:

Look familiar? That is because the universe is built on this simple principle. It is from this perfect dance between all that IS and all that ISN'T that all that we see arises.
