Nowhere and Nothing

"Where are we going?" asked Pooh.
"Nowhere," said Christopher Robin.
So they began going there and after they had walked a little way Christopher Robin asked "What do you like doing best in the world, Pooh?"  ... (and then said) ... "what I like doing best is Nothing."
"How do you do Nothing?" asked Pooh after he wondered for a long time.
"Well, it's when people call out to you just as you're going off to do it, What are you going to do, Christopher Robin, and you say, Oh, Nothing, and then you go and do it."
"Oh, I see," said Pooh.
"It's a nothing sort of thing that we are doing right now."
"Oh, I see" said Pooh again.
"It means going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering."
