One might think thoughts are typing what you are reading ... however just because there is typing on a computer doesn't mean there is or was a thought prior to the typing. Thought actually comes after the typing or any action, but because it is so small a gap in time, one "thinks" they have done the action.
You will only ever “get” this ... if you begin to become aware of yourself. Once you do … you begin to see that you are behind yourself/the body ... not in front like you might have thought.
