Globalization of the Luxury of Sadness

Sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, I feel I am thirsty for water, this is more or less common and ordinary for many persons. But tonight, after putting an effort into going to sleep for quite a bit of time, the realization came along the way that this is not a mere thirst for water. A sleepless night is not that big of a deal, the problem is just to tame the influx of dreams in hours of the day! Dreams come, You come. When you are no longer, I feel the scent of our girl, Tushimoni,like a blooming flower. How deep is the dream of a lifetime? In the depth of night, this feels like a call of unfathomable water! “There is a good old film in this name, do you know?” You start to laugh in my imaginary conversation, amused with me, with all my childish yearning. I know. One night I tried to search for the film to watch it one more time. Sometimes the death of a reader is inevitable, the same is true for an audience. Although in English, these lyrics of this song felt surreal in the middle of the night. "I don't believe in superstars Organic food and foreign cars I don't believe the price of gold The certainty of growing old That right is right and left is wrong That north and south can't get along That east is east, and west is west And being first is always best " (I Believe In You Song by Don Williams) In a globalizing world, there is emerging globalization of the luxury of sadness! How effective will be a quotation mark, will all the helplessness?
