This was an interesting one! For the first 30ish seconds of the first counting of thoughts I felt like I was jumping around between a bunch of random things and then all of a sudden the pedantic part of my brain wondered, “what differentiates a thought from another thought?” So I got hung up on that for the rest of the first counting and figured that was all one continuous thought. Funnily enough when the second counting session started I was still consumed with my own definition of what would constitute a singular thought versus a continuation of a previous thought. After several seconds of that I decided it didn’t matter and my mind sort went blank until the end. The whole process was interesting to me because I’m usually a person who just goes with the vibes of the current meditation/situation but this time I really wanted to dot the i’s and cross the t’s - fully characterize the specifics. Wonder why… 🤷
