Cartesius Page #17

---

We all have our own vocations

and must live them faithfully.

Everything we have comes

from God and his bounty.

Yes.

I will certainly continue

to live and to think

But now I will close

my eyes and plug my ears,

I will switch off my senses.

I wish to cancel all

images of bodily

things from my thoughts

and to entertain myself,

only with myself and to

live enclosed inside myself.

And perhaps, by searching

inside myself, I will succeed in

slowly placating the pain

and confusion of these days.

I shall prove to myself

that a thing, a soul that thinks,

means that it doubts, affirms,

denies and knows few things

and that is ignorant of many

things, that loves, hates and wants,

wants no more, remembers,

imagines and feels.

I shall try to extend my

knowledge through pain,

I shall carefully consider

if I can't still discover

some other thing that I haven't

perceived until this moment inside me.

I have the certainty of

being something that thinks,

but where does this

certainty come from.
