The man and his chair

The man was born in a small town in the country.
The chair was born in a factory in the city.
The man's parents were a doctor and a school teacher.
The chair never knew it's parents.
The man spent his younger years traveling and studying, learning from the world around him.
The chair spent it's life in front of the television.
The man philosophized on these very facts. The contrast between his life and that of his chair's.
The chair gave it no thought at all.
And despite the great many differences, the man loved his chair.
The chair, however, despised the man.
