emerson said thought was round, wallace stevens called it an infection. frost said it had a pair of dauntless wings.
what do you think a thought is?

I think that thoughts (some thoughts, at least) are translated feelings.

can one separate the heart and mind?
what is the heart?
what is the mind?
brain+hear=mind?
and soul?

sometimes i think i'm out of mind
and nothing is real

The way I see it, it's just "I think."
It's not "therefore..." anything.
"I think" is a declaration of both 'I' and 'thought'
I think

"I think therefore I am" is not logically true
We cannot tell if any of our senses are lying; our entire earthly experience could be a dream.
Descarte thinks that the act of thinkng ensures our existence - if we can think, we know we exist.
But what makes our thoughts exempt from the deception that our senses are subjected to?

we know that something (that we call 'I') perceives something, but we can never know whether our perceptions are universally true or false; we know of their existence, but not of their validity. Using logic, reason and experience, we can learn which of our perception are more likely to be true, but we can never know.
We don't even know if anything can be universally true.

logic, reason and experience have always seemed like pretty shifty things to base belief on to me.

seems to me that some people will only accept certain things if they are based on the above three things. i'm not one of them.
