When you are aware of a thought you are demonstrating far more than just thought alone. First you need the thought it's self, then you need perception to be able to define it as a thought, you need imagination to conceptualize the thought, you need memory to store the thought, you need willpower to retrieve specifically that thought memory, reason to define a meaningful context for the thought, all of which will stir some level of emotional reaction. Thinking about your thoughts leads to a fairly encompassing example.
