In this paper an ontological conception is presented that is called eventualism of somethings. In the first part, on one side, the distinction is formulated between somethings considered within a perspective of the subject and those outside it; on the other, the nature of somethings is analyzed on the basis of the principium individuationis, the notions of mass and volume and those of space and time. These notions make it possible to affirm that a something is considered such only if it is maintained in time and space and if the relationships are preserved between the masses that constitute it. In the subsequent part there are analyzed the relationships that every something can have with others in space-time. On the basis of this analysis some characteristics and aspects of somethings are considered: topicality, out-datedness and eventuality, which are the fundamental notions of the eventualist conception. In the final part two forms of eventuality are analyzed:
primary archetypical eventuality, which sets aside from any subject, and perspective eventuality, which involves a subject or an observer. On the latter there is founded perspective eventualism, according to which every something is possible and perspectively infinite. Finally, in the light of eventualism of somethings the theme of the levels of reality is briefly examined.
