Where do you live?
In your head.
Where do you spend the most time?
In your head.
Where do you hold the most conversations?
In your head.
With whom?
With yourself, through the agency of your thoughts..

Where should you live?
In your heart.
Where should you spend the most time?
In your heart.
Where should you hold the most conversations?
In your heart.
With whom?
With God, through the agency of your inner voice.
