P.S. Since I was trying to catch up on comments from your posts and coulndn't do them -I guess I tried to do too many -I got a message that actually said" you are commenting too fast. slow down." Seriously - it cracked me up. Did you put that in there? The point is…that it PLAYED. P.S.

If you look, the man requested a clock that would prove how valuable his time is. So if he threw it away because it did not fulfill its intended purpose he was sadly in the wrong. The clock’s purpose was to show the man how valuable his time is. I might be stretching but I think the clock maker and the writer is saying your time is valuable if you use your hands to serve a purpose because your time is not that valuable unless used for others. You don't need hands at all if all you are doing is standing in line to get yours. What could possibly tell you how valuable your time is more than a masterpiece clock whose maker ran out of time himself before he could finish. To put hands on that clock would be worse then destroying it. Seems to me we are looking at the parable from the wrong angle.
