New favourite comment I've read online: "You are not your thoughts, you are the awareness that observes them."

I did not write this, but this comment by @mayner.b.83 on Instagram has been echoing in my mind:

"You are not your thoughts, you are the awareness that observes them."

This is my favourite way I've heard to define a person. I remember watching batman and then saying "it's what you do that defines you"; some people peeling it back to "it's your thoughts"; but this one is my favourite.
