The Chair

I bought a leather chair from Ikea. It’s super comfortable. Sometimes I’ll sit in it and do nothing else.

The other day I said to the chair, “How is it that you are so cozy?”

The chair said, “Oh, thank you, but I’m just doing my job.”

I said, “Yes, but I don’t feel this way about other chairs. Why you?”

The chair said, “Most chairs don’t like when you sit in them. They’d rather be left alone. However I feel better when I’m doing what I’ve been created to do. It makes me happy. That’s what you’re feeling when you sit in me.”

I said, “Well, then I’m a lucky guy.”

The chair said, “Yes, you are.”
