So what about my shadow ?

That occupies points where, by definition, nothing happens.

And the shadow is made of nothing, again by definition.

 

Also if you are going to claim that the points are but abstract and only come into existence when something happens then you also need to establish whether or not the points and their nature depend in any way upon the something that happens.

A real can of worms.

Does the shadow only exist  on its border (where things do happen)?

If you try to observe the interior of the shadow, doesn't it disappear(if it is a total shadow)?
