Joy and meaning does not come from our thinking; it is a different faculty

How are you defining "thought"/"thinking"?

I don't know why you ask that . . .

Because some mental content isn't thought/thinking on your view, so I'm wondering just what subset is thought/thinking in your usage. Different people who use "thought" in a more limited manner have different ideas of just what they're referring to.
