We may name many names to answer this prompt, but the truth lies— we all spend most of our time with ourselves. Be it negative or positive, doing something productive or staying in a quiet ‘meditation’ of overthinking.

Whatever we do, we know well that even when we’re interacting with humans, we’re always calibrating inside our heads on what the other person is thinking, what to say next or what not to.

Even inside our heads, we are in a constant relay of thoughts, judgements, observations, contemplation, action, reaction, reflection— reminding ourselves repeatedly that we are never alone. At least until we have a mind that keeps us entertained or should I say, engaged!

Unless… you spend most of your time with your phone! That’s a different case study altogether.
