Have you ever felt so disconnected from your body that you enter the void? Really experienced nothingness?

I don't know. There are a lot of things we can't imagine. Our brain uses everything we've experienced to piece together things we imagine, but there are some things we just can't imagine because all of our experiences simply aren't enough to even begin to guess what it is.

Think of colors we can never see - I think the idea of nothingness is interesting; I wonder what existed before the universe. Maybe that's the nothingness you're thinking of.

Like infinity, there no such thing as nothingness or empty darkness, even darkness is made of something! My mind boggles, Lol!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
