Amazing

Thinking. It amazes me how much time we (I) spend thinking. I remember a friend a had in one of my philosophy classes (when I was in school) who asked the question, "What would your thoughts for ONE DAY look like if they were all typed out onto a single piece of paper. WOW! What a thought! There is a seemingly endless series of thoughts that seems to go through my mind. Never resting on any one thing. I think my paper would float to so many things and be all over the place, i don't know about you.
Anyways, no one teaches us HOW to think for ourselves. Especially not public school. They may teach us how to memorize, but never how to think.
One question: In the seemingly endless series of thoughts we have, how do we find/know ourselves?
