What am I?

Why do I think I exist? Why does a supercomputer have no idea it exists, and yet I know that I do? What is this thing I call a self? I know my foot is real, but it doesn’t know that. I know all of my body parts are real. But why does this thing called an “I” feel more real than any of the body parts that carry it about and indeed give it existence?
I don’t say that it is more real, but anyone who is honest with themselves will have to admit that it feels more real. And yet it is the most ephemeral thing about us.
What are we?
