Papa Hari Says, in His Infinite Wisdom:

Many times, when we think about something, that thought leads to another thought and we think that that thought had actually led to the other thought naturally, but when we think about it, we actually begin to think that we had actually thought ourselves into the second thought through the first thought without the second occuring naturally. At that moment, we start thinking about thinking itself and not about that thought any more, so the thought that first occurs to us is that the second thought didn't occur naturally but was forced on by thinking about the first thought.

-- Papa Hari, circa AD 2007 :P

  1. You're lucky! My tomatoes are all fresh and I just can't toss a fresh tomato! Yummy!

  2. I thought that I was thinking about this post but that thought was replaced by another thought about thinking and I couldn't think of what I was trying to think about. So, I commented here.
