Every thought is also a thought act, you are doing something by thinking this thought and what you are doing is not the same as what you are thinking about. On both levels it is a matter of a kind of meaning and so these can only come into effect within a context that determines the field of significances that turn event into intent. Mood does not account for this, even though it seems to, but you can in fact free the mood from any thought content so that it becomes a static field of feeling. As far as the content of the thoughts are concerned there seems to be a sort of menu or table of values in play, as changeable as the weather, but accepted immediately as if handed down and never questioned. Where thought are stale it is this menu of values that is to blame, that is lacking in variety and true nourishment.
