What if everything mattered, and didn't matter, at the same time? What if the essential "meaningless-ness of everything" gives free ground for all the meanings imaginable?

Just because life isn't special, doesn't mean it isn't special.

True words are paradoxical... sometimes.

It's the same thing.

No words are true, but paradox is closest.
My point was that true monism = true nihilism.
Nihilism isn't having no beliefs, it's believing in no thing.

Nice. That makes sense.

Alternatively, everything is meaningful, be we pick out what is so to us!

In that case a true Buddhist isn't even a Buddhist.
