I've wondered that, too. The general response I've gotten to that question is that it's as you say, complex chemical reactions and neurons firing and so on.
I don't really "believe in" a "creator" these days. I've seen in myriad ways that Creation IS the Creator, and it is self-Creating. But that's another discussion.
