Overview
Lessons From A Clock
The Tick, The Tock, and The In-Between.
Time has been speaking all your life. You just may not have been listening.
Every day, we glance at a clock without giving it much thought. We check the time before leaving home, while waiting for an appointment, during a meeting, or before going to bed. We depend on clocks to organize our days, but we rarely stop to consider what they might teach us about the way we are living.
What if there is more to a clock than telling us what time it is?
In Lessons From A Clock, registered nurse, author, humanitarian, storyteller, and woman of faith Thelma Ibeh invites readers to look at an everyday object from a different perspective. Drawing from more than two decades of nursing, along with life experiences, stories, observations, family, faith, and nature, she explores the lessons that can be found in something as familiar as a clock.
For generations, the clock has been present through the milestones of human life. It has marked birthdays and graduations, weddings and new beginnings, waiting rooms and difficult conversations, celebrations and loss. It has been there while dreams were pursued, delayed, fulfilled, or sometimes abandoned. Through it all, time continues to move, reminding us that every season has its place and every moment has value.
This is not a book about learning to tell time. It is a book about paying attention to the time we have.
Each of the fifty chapters begins with a simple observation about the clock and develops into a reflection on life. The lessons explore purpose, relationships, faith, perseverance, healing, choices, responsibility, and the ways our use of time shapes the person we become and the legacy we leave behind.
Within these pages are lessons on:
● Purpose and protecting what matters most
● Family, friendship, and enduring love
● Dreams, delay, and the danger of continually saying "someday"
● Healing, forgiveness, and second chances
● Making meaningful use of the time we have
● Legacy and investing in what will outlive us
Whether you are beginning a new chapter, navigating a difficult season, or looking back on years already lived, Lessons From A Clock offers an opportunity to pause and consider what time has been teaching you.
Some moments pass so quickly that we barely notice them. Others stay with us for years. Together, those moments become our stories.
By the time you reach the final page, you may find yourself looking at the clock a little differently-not simply as a way to measure the passing hours, but as a reminder to pay attention to the life unfolding within them.
The Tick. The Tock. And The In-Between.
Because a life is not defined only by when it begins or when it ends, but by what we do with the time in between.
The clock has been there all along. Now, make it a time to listen.
