nothing

if an atom is a collection of protons and neutrons surrounded by a cloud of electrons, and these electrons orbit the nucelus, leaving gaping spaces of nothingness in between these particles, and i am composed of gajillions of atoms, then am i also composed of more than a gajllion gaps of nothingness? wouldn't that make me, predominately, nothing?

and what is nothing? if that nothingness actually exists, is it a thing? would that be a paradox? nothing existing as a thing? if nothing is the absence of thing (that is, no thing), then there is literally nothing between these electrons and nucleus, right? what is smaller than an electron? is there anything smaller than an electron? if there is nothing that exists between the spaces between electrons, then how can that even be fathomed?

i seriously can't wrap my head around the idea of nothingness. how can there just be... nothing? it's just a space. literally a space with nothing in it. how can i be composed of so much nothing? i heard that if you took all the atoms of mankind and squished it all together, it would come to about the size of a sugar cube. how insane is that?! if that's true, then we are predominately nothing, but if that's true, then wtf? how can there so much of me and yet, so little?

freakin blows my mind.
