Mark wakes up the next morning feeling a little worse for wear. His head is221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZIMphJqRY
pounding, and he can barely remember all the details of the previous night’s escapades.221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJPpZtBjwm
221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ksxIx7pbv
But as he takes in his luxurious surroundings and the expensive artwork adorning221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWH931xDlJ
his walls, he can’t help but feel a sense of pride and satisfaction. Today, Mark221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTg6cKaGYJ
decides to indulge in some of his more refined interests. He begins by browsing a221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmEfkoNtRw
local art gallery, admiring the latest collections, and making small talk with the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFPs3B5IDl
staff. He’s always enjoyed art, and he takes pleasure in showing off his knowledge221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsN08btGu0
and taste to anyone who will listen. After the gallery, Mark heads to a rare wine221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhlws9Uc29
store, where he purchases a few bottles of vintage Bordeaux and a case of the finest221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfvHLZVBET
champagne. He loves the feeling of exclusivity and sophistication that comes with221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gnZFpNnDk
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 his221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVooRfYnC55
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 that221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbtiK0E5RB
something is missing. He knows that his friends are envious of his lifestyle, but he221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5WRZPiA9k
can’t help but feel that their admiration is shallow and superficial. He wonders221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7zAkPyJ0i
whether there’s more to life than just collecting expensive objects and showing them221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpbkJStPb0
off to others. As the evening wears on, Mark drinks more wine and becomes more221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHEy1OaN8b
introspective. He starts to question whether his obsession with wealth and status is really221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwy5jTZcyES
worth the sacrifices he’s made. He thinks about the long hours at the office, the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW61cYoIk4d
constant pressure to perform, and the toll that his lifestyle has taken on his221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucYPeMcrRd
personal relationships. But even as these thoughts creep in, Mark can’t help but feel a221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Inbu2DW32
sense of pride and satisfaction. He’s living the high life, and he knows that few221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EdKC4F6Nf
others have achieved what he has. He tells himself that the sacrifices are worth221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyZaIFphlq
it, that the pursuit of success is the ultimate goal, and that everything else221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cBJ7xaZhC
will fall into place in due time. Little does he know, the emptiness and isolation221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKPSQtSfmj
he feels are only the beginning of a downward spiral that will threaten to221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKDHLvvkdl
destroy everything he’s worked so hard for. The very things that he’s chasing –221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDTPZNKi6N
wealth, status, and power – may end up being the very things that destroy him in the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5D01Kkn5Z
