08:32
But you know, you do, if you make, if you work, if you love what you do, 

being a teacher, being a banker, being a mother, being a painter, being 

Bill Gates, if you simply love another person and that gives you the hum, 

if you know the hum, if you know what the hum feels like, if you have 

been to the hum, when the hum stops, who are you? What are you? 

What am I? Am I still a titan? If the song of my heart ceases to play, can I 

survive in the silence?

And then my Southern waitress toddler asks me a question. I'm on my 

way out the door, I'm late, and she says, "Momma, wanna play?" 

09:18
And I'm just about to say no, when I realize two things. One, I'm 

supposed to say yes to everything, and two, my Southern waitress didn't 

call me "honey." She's not calling everyone "honey" anymore. When did 

that happen? I'm missing it, being a titan and mourning my hum, and 

here she is changing right before my eyes. And so she says, "Momma, 

wanna play?" And I say, "Yes." There's nothing special about it. We play, 

and we're joined by her sisters, and there's a lot of laughing, and I give a 

dramatic reading from the book Everybody Poops. Nothing out of the 

ordinary.
