Is something nothing?

Where to you stand on the relativity of the universe and meaning of existance?

I realise that this opens a much bigger metaphysical can of worms than the inverse question.
 
how about this scenario, there is a car crash on the freeway, it is nothing to you cause you dont know the people nor are you driving anywhere. But it's something to the people that know the people in the car crash or are driving on the freeway, or side roads near the freeway.
 
Something is something, nothing is nothing. Nothing is the lack of something. Something is when there is not just nothing.
They are different. From the most simple to the most complicated explanation, something and nothing are different.

You're thinking is so..... one dimensional.
 
How can nothing exist? There has to be something... Even if it's just empty space, it's something... 😕
 
I always though that the existence of something, by the very definition of the word, precluded the possibility that something could be nothing. If it's something, then it's something. If it was nothing, how could it be something?

I don't see the huge metaphysical can of worms that the topic is supposed to open... 😕

In simpler terms - Everything is Relative to Everything else.
