Life fades like it was a dream.
Therefore the greatest things we wanted to do in life but weren't able to probably wouldn't be fulfilled because we just wouldn't have the interest any longer.
Isn't that already true of life on Earth? Didn't you have dreams or goals as a kid that seemed all-important when you were eight, but on reflection seem pretty silly, pointless, and\or totally impossible?
As an easy example: Just consider how many kids, at one point or another, thought the greatest thing they could do is complete a Pokedex... yet twenty years later would be hard pressed to recognize Nidoran in a lineup. Interests and goals and dreams change all the time. Those which are actually important to someone's development stick and remain important, and all the rest fade away like last season's color trends.
