A man is waiting at Grand Central Station for his train that leaves at 6 p.m. Curious about the time, and having forgot his watch, he looks around for someone wearing a watch to ask the time. Soon he spots a guy carrying two suitcases and sporting this fabulous hi-tech watch, and decides to ask him for the time.
The guy replies "Sure, which country?"
The man asks, "How many countries have you got?"
"All the countries in the world."
"Wow! That's a pretty cool watch you've got there."
"That's only a part of it," the guy says. "This watch also has GPS navigation, fax, e-mail, and can even receive NTSC television channels that it displays on its miniature active color pixel LCD screen."
"Boy, that's incredible-I wish I had a watch like that. You wouldn't consider selling it by any chance?"
"Well actually, the novelty has quite worn off for me, so for $900, a mere fraction of the price I paid for it, you can have it."
The watchless traveler can hardly whip out his checkbook fast enough to hand over the check.
The guy takes off the watch and gives it to him.
"Congratulations, man! Here is you new hi-tech watch."
Then, handing over the two suitcases, he says, "And here are the batteries."
Are you easily ensnared by worldly trappings?
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. -Colossians 3:1
