That is the true nature of all things which humans have forgotten!. Sound is heard against a background of silence!. Form is only visible because of the invisible!. From the formless form is made possible, because the form less exist where form is and is not!. Choice is the formless that motivates the action of form!. There are no solid objects at the sub-atomic level, yet form is perceived as solid!. Imagination produces masterpieces!. it is context that gives content meaning!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
