now to be fair the phrase cogito ergo sum wasn't from the mediations it was from an earlier work called the discourse

in the meditation Descartes argues that if there's conclusions and premises to the argument then there might be misunderstanding there might be a fault of conveying the needed information
❤5
so he summed it in the mediations with I think, I AM
thus eliminating the all causes of confusion

What you wrote is very impressive
Because in fact, he was talking about mind-body dualism, including that the sensory perception isn't something required for the senses to do, but it's a mere mind machinisim of clearing things up and understanding it. Linking his dualism with his theory about the conscious being the only controller of our psychological life (rejecting any psychological subconscious). Concluding all that in talking about perception as being the opposite of the doubt that had prevailed over him for a period of time.

People mistook this because if we continued reading his theory, Descartes describes thinking as "being conscious of thinking" (التفكير حسب ديكارت يعني ان نعي اننا نفكر)

Great work, according to the dictionary.
But in my personal opinion I'd translate it as the greatEST work
Or a masterpiece.

It was a wonderful night, such a night as is only possible when we are young, dear reader.

In the tapestry of her eyes, I found a reflection,
A mirror of my dreams, an eternal connection.
For in her gaze, I found the missing fragments of me,
And in the realm of her thoughts, I found my destiny.
