Is our reality actually fiction?

To make this sound seemingly interesting, let me ask you ‘Where am I now?’ Well, you’d say, how do I know. But the answer might actually be pretty simple. Am I in the  Universe>Earth>Continent>Country>State>City>Locality>Road>Street>Flat>Apartment number.>in a room>in my body? That might perhaps make sense. (I know you were lazy enough to skip reading the above line)
                           
But I disagree. I say I mostly live inside my mind. And I really hope that it is true with each one of us. When we communicate with another person, we always communicate from our mind. When we sit idly, we are in constant conversations with our mind, when we watch TV or read a book or browse the internet, it always seems like we react within and from our mind.

Yet, this mind also goes away to the so-called non-reality to the most eccentric people whom we either consider mad or call as ‘the enlightened’. Sometimes for us, who really have the sense to think about something out-of-the-box, our mind seems to travel far away from where the rock solid floor bares our body.

So, if we always live in our mind which seems to dwindle far away from our existing bodily form, then what is the place that our body resides in called as? Is that something we call ‘mind’ the reality or the forests, cities, houses, people and material that we experience through our five senses a reality? Are we actually living a dream? Doesn’t it sound fascinating?

Readers, I request you to comment below and convey your most significant views on the topic as this blog is not all about me, but a combined effort of us, to find what is called ‘the reality’.
