Writing 4

 If we consider that existence is the greatest category of all things, as shown by Writing 2, then we must assume that there are no things which do not exist. A non-existent thing is a contradictory statement, a fault of language and logic. However, if the set of all symbols are greater than the set of all real non-symbolic things, then to what do the set of these failed symbols point? Do they point towards actually existent things but are unapproachable to us beings, or are they simply faulty arrangements of symbols which fail, as they fail to represent anything at all?

Let us consider 2 examples, a simple example of "A married single person" and a more abstract example of "A non-existent object". The first example is clearly a contradiction. A person who is single is clearly unmarried. So one cannot be both single and married in the same exact way. The condition of single and marriage are mutually exclusive and thus must possess a different logical space. If a person is single and married at the same time, it must be that there is not absolutely one person, but there are 2 persons of the same category, one being single and one being married. 

However, it is clear that these contradictions can be interpreted in numerous ways. There are ways to intepret them such that they become possible, but there are also ways where they are still impossible. To resolve all contradictions, we must reduce it to its essence, that is an object being both absent and present in the same way. This is the essence of all contradictions. While there are some contradictions where it is more of the union of 2 different things and instead of between a thing and a nothing, those contradictions are resolvable.

The resolution of one type of contradictions is by declaring that it is possible for a thing to be the union of 2 or more other things at once. These things are necessarily called unions. Unions are apparent contradictions of logic, but in plain view there is no law restricting against unions, we simply cannot reach them with empirical experience, but the rational experience extends through them and reaches them in a quick manner. The problem lies with a type of union which involves an object and a non-object, that is nothing.

The union between an object and nothing destroys our common understanding of reality, as supposedly the existence will cancel out the non-existence in the same logical space. However, it is not unthinkable that such a union can come about, and perhaps, "union" is simply the default state of reality. The default state of reality is that of a union of all things contained within reality. Therefore, all statements are absolutely true. For there is always a perspective or point of view or condition where a particular statement is true in all senses of that statement. However, this is only in the absolute sense, in the relative sense, this is where the distinction between truth and falsehood come about.
