Definitely.

With regards to the OP...something I've been thinking about a little bit is what is my mind........

For something that is meant to be so prevalent, it seems so... invisible. What os a..."mind". I've also been thinking about what it means for something to "exist". 

And I love this little nugget of wisdom when applied to questioning reality and contemplating stuff... "The question is also the answer." Hehe

Great question. I couldn't "think" of an answer. A thought is a thought.

@Osaid 5’s the most accurate. 

Instead of apples you know what's in "my head"? 

Yes, you guess'd it right. Lingerie.

The mind is a concept, it doesnt exist as a "thing", what exists is the phenomema of thoughts and images as they are, if you want to lump the two together and call it mind thats fine but there is no "container". I think the idea of a mind as a container comes from our materialist idea of separating body, mind and an outside world, but in reality they are all interlinked.
