Mark wakes up the next morning feeling a little worse for wear. His head is217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tS5TGpIwK
pounding, and he can barely remember all the details of the previous night’s escapades.217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT48YhOzExC
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LEIt78fEO
But as he takes in his luxurious surroundings and the expensive artwork adorning217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX3cztDpkV
his walls, he can’t help but feel a sense of pride and satisfaction. Today, Mark217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WCJTq2lPb
decides to indulge in some of his more refined interests. He begins by browsing a217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc9gLHFWXi
local art gallery, admiring the latest collections, and making small talk with the217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkOklRDgEW
staff. He’s always enjoyed art, and he takes pleasure in showing off his knowledge217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1TwfGyNb1
and taste to anyone who will listen. After the gallery, Mark heads to a rare wine217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V8qAKYStL
store, where he purchases a few bottles of vintage Bordeaux and a case of the finest217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmkhChLNpb
champagne. He loves the feeling of exclusivity and sophistication that comes with217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevR1CNmB12
owning such high-end products, and he knows that his friends will be impressed when he shows them off. In the afternoon, Mark hosts a small gathering at his217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdGp9fzTta
apartment, inviting a few close friends over to sample the wine and admire his collection of art. As he pours glasses and makes small talk, he can’t help but feel a sense of superiority and control. He knows that his wealth and taste give him an advantage over others, and he enjoys using that power to his advantage. But even as he revels in his success and material possessions, Mark can’t shake the feeling that217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTEUOmx4bC
something is missing. He knows that his friends are envious of his lifestyle, but he217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbX8neKRyJ
can’t help but feel that their admiration is shallow and superficial. He wonders217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XYRaAbuWK
whether there’s more to life than just collecting expensive objects and showing them217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAglNJr9iW
off to others. As the evening wears on, Mark drinks more wine and becomes more217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpufFNper2
introspective. He starts to question whether his obsession with wealth and status is really217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4wIf02f6p
worth the sacrifices he’s made. He thinks about the long hours at the office, the217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcjkZ14WaF
constant pressure to perform, and the toll that his lifestyle has taken on his217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAOx27Hbbe
personal relationships. But even as these thoughts creep in, Mark can’t help but feel a217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZrQyBvEqa
sense of pride and satisfaction. He’s living the high life, and he knows that few217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2bSCgPm72
others have achieved what he has. He tells himself that the sacrifices are worth217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9Uhrxhzzu
it, that the pursuit of success is the ultimate goal, and that everything else217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZkPhksKLe
will fall into place in due time. Little does he know, the emptiness and isolation217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL5YKtae2H
he feels are only the beginning of a downward spiral that will threaten to217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryJH1Ed3Rp
destroy everything he’s worked so hard for. The very things that he’s chasing –217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmowsN1pWas
wealth, status, and power – may end up being the very things that destroy him in the217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuIsnOWAxj
