Your own becomingSettling

“What are the ten minutes that keep you human?”

Why this question

The shower with the door locked. The one coffee. The walk to the end of the road. The headphones in the kitchen.

Where it leads

Name them, defend them, and notice who helps you get them.

More from Your own becoming

“Tell the story of the first time someone called you Mum, Dad — or whatever your name is in this family.”

“Fathers and partners: what does nobody ask you? Answer it here.”

“Who have you become that you didn't expect to become?”

Rather say it than write it?

This question lives in the Save These Days app as a one-minute voice prompt — answerable one-handed, while the baby sleeps on you, kept on your own device.
