Does anyone realize that if absoluteness didn't exist, we absolutely would not be here? Now please, tell me how certain you are of the fact that you exist. I mean Hello, is anybody there?

Is reality an absolute? Or, are we just figments of our own imaginations? This is what human subjectivity is supposed to entail right? So in that sense we really don't know anything do we? And yet what exactly is it that tells us we don't know?
Isn't this the kind of thing Socrates proclaimed? That the only thing he knows is that he doesn't know. So what exactly is it that's telling us this if, in fact it weren't absolute?

So is it possible that absoluteness has anything to do with context? For example, say Joe had four cows. Now, if he took all four cows and put them in a pen, would it be possible to say that all four of Joes cows, hence the notion of absoluteness, are in the pen? Also, aren't we speaking of a similar notion when we say "She can't be a little bit pregnant?" Isn't that in fact an absolute? So what it seems to suggest is that absoluteness is none other than the truth and, that the truth can only remain the truth so long as the value it represents, hence the good, remains in context.
So whatever happened to this thing called reality is what I would like to know?
