I must think in English. Today I'm trying to think about thinking itself. What is thinking? I know it's a metaphysical question and no one can define what exactly it is. But for me making up certain definitions is a waste of time. I’d rather describe the picture that I see when I'm thinking about thinking. Every time, when I look at the picture, I see new details. My view never stays the same. Of course, I can wrap my head around the formal definitions like this, "thinking can refer to the act of producing thoughts," or like that, "thinking is the objective analysis of facts to form a judgment."
However, my comprehension of what thinking is will not become better if I repeat mechanically these bunches of words. In order to figure out what thinking is, I must think myself, especially if it is about a new language. How could I learn to think in English replacing one mindless bunch of words with another?
