In the morning, with the first sip of coffee, I noticed: something was different. It’s ticking. After a short orientation, I let myself be captured by this even sound and its gentle presence. An analog clock creates a new ambience in my morning routine. This quiet tick-tock brings back memories. I will once again thank the person who thought: This belongs in the house. How are you doing with that? Have you forgotten the ticking of clocks, or does it accompany your life? Or have you already been using other ways to measure time? Write if you too are fascinated by the meaning and nostalgia that the tick-tock of a clock can evoke. I look forward to your thoughts – and thank you in advance.
