There was philosopher called Descartes,
Who thought he was being rather smart.
With a flick of his wrist,
He said "I must exist",
Because I can definitely smell my fart.

In the simple, yet profound declaration ‘I think, therefore I am’, René Descartes captured a fundamental truth about human existence and consciousness.

It challenges us to be mindful of our thoughts, for in them lies the essence of our existence. ‘I think, therefore I am’ is not just a statement about being, it’s a call to conscious living and thinking.
