zero and infinity

We know that infinity is a difficult concept to understand or comprehend. But We think zero is very easy to understand but it is more di fficult than infinity. We think zero is nothing. But what is nothing, we cannot experience nothing.Say when you are dead there is nothing. It is not so. There will be something. A more difficult concept than zero is, nearing . Or getting infinitisimally small, or nearingto zero.

Lets consider How we are going to get  zero or near zero emphatically. First you get two seprate physical points( Maybe there is no problem to identify -seprate from together- this may be also a problem. ) Then - we are goin to find the mid point. we draw a stright line from one point to the next , then we measure halfway and that is the mid point. See how many assumptions we have already made in arriving at this result. What iS a straight line does it exist in nature? The shortest distance betwem two point s. how to findd the shortest distance. Say we traverse from one point tothe next measuring the distance. How are we going to me sure of the distance, we need some sort of measuring device , how accurate is it. does such a device with100% accuracy exist in nature? Then supose we keep on traversing till we find a shortest one ,  how and where to keep a record of our traverses to find which is the shortest?. and how long are we he keep on traversing till we find the shortest . Is it many is It in finity.

All these are logical not empharical. So there in a problem of finding the midpoint. So we have a problem , given something to find a smaller thing. If we keep on finding smaller thingS, We wi ll be able to reach near to zero. with all there logical things, though we can come to near zoro, even logically we can't reach zero, let alone emphatically.
