Take away the nothing

Imagine that the whole universe is a single empty room with white walls. Now, take away the white. Subtract any concept of color.

Next, take away the walls. In fact, take away the whole room. What's left is nothing.

Now, take away the nothing. And what's left is what I think the universe really is. Or maybe it's what I want the universe to be. But if I take away the 'I,' then who or what wants it?

Fortunately, thinking about this stuff is optional.
