Making Do in the Prada World

One might think that the Persian values of being content with what we have and not worrying about material goods have lost their relevance in the Prada world of Beverly Hills and Kings Point. Yet, one of the more popular songs over the past few years among Persians has been Moein's "Moments" (Lahzeha) which evokes those exact values:

Enjoy the little you have
Release sadness and suffering
If there is no sea
Make do with the drop!
