The Pillow Koan

I tried, last month, to explain why I never celebrate anything. But I didn't quite capture it. So I offer, instead, this koan:

I once slept on a very uncomfortable pillow,
for eight hours every night,
and celebrated everything one is supposed to celebrate.

Now, I've taken the trouble to acquire
a phenomenally comfortable pillow
and never celebrate anything in particular.
