Write, or just say it

One to three things you're grateful for. The box is focused the moment the app opens, and there's a microphone beside it if your hands are full. Thirty seconds, most days.

Your voice never leaves the device

Speech becomes text on your own machine — the recogniser ships inside the app. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is transcribed in someone else's data centre, and it all works in aeroplane mode.

Something grows from it

A seed becomes a sprout, then plain heart-shaped leaves — and then, only once it has matured, the splits and holes a monstera is known for. Nine stages, driven by how much you write and how many days you turn up. The last takes about a year.

Nine stages, and no hurry

about a year to the last one →

1. Seed

In the soil, doing nothing visible.

2. Sprout

One furled leaf, still deciding.

3. Seedling

Two plain hearts. No holes yet — that comes later.

4. Juvenile

Broad, glossy, entirely solid.

5. First split

The margin opens. This is the one that surprises people.

6. Fenestrating

Windows, where there was only leaf.

7. Climbing

Aerial roots, reaching for something to hold.

8. Established

Wide enough to change the room.

9. Ancient

Older than the habit that made it.
