Well, it's a theory of mine that when we are born, it's just random firing of the brain's synapses. Through mimicry and emotional acceptance by the parents, thought is formed and organized out of the chaos.
Freud, Jung, and others concluded we have the subconscious (thoughts we have that are censored) the conscious (where we are right now, me typing and you reading) and the super-conscious (that part of us that sees the bigger picture and borders on genius).
So those surprising thoughts that seem to spring out of nowhere are just messages from your sub/super consciousness. IMHO. Does this help clarify your thoughts?

We have thoughts because our brain was designed that way, which is what makes us "superior" to animals, who act on instinct rather than conscious thought.
Sometimes random thoughts might just pop into your head for no apparent reason, while other times you'll purposely concentrate on something.
Both are normal, and happen to everyone!

Mind is like a lake! The sensations all around you, which you sense through eyes, ears, nose,etc., are like breeze, sometimes building up in strength, sometimes light wind, sometimes stronger wind, at other times, storm, rarely cyclone: they cause ripples in the lake, thoughts in your mind! You want a calm lake? build up walls, canopies, after gauging the direction of wind correctly, taking help from experts, as necessary, to shield the water in the lake, from external disturbance! Protect your mind from external disturbances through yogic and meditation exercises, concentration exercises, taking help, as necessary, from experts! As you can put the lake to good use, put your mind to good use! Enjoy success in life, remove all confusion from mind, find, in short, happiness and peace! good luck!

The things we cant do thoughts make it possible. In other words it can be good or bad depends on state of mind you are at present.Think good and act good.

I will answer your question with another question- how do you know we have thoughts? You think you have thoughts, but human beings can never truly know anything. Think about it.
