“There are moments when reality exceeds my wildest dreams. Usually, it is followed by extreme regret.”
— Neil Gaiman

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, life gives you experiences that are even better than you ever imagined. Imagine finding out that you won a huge lottery jackpot, much more than you ever thought you would. But then, after that amazing feeling, you might start to feel sorry because, along with the money, comes a lot of problems. Friends and family may ask for money, people you don’t know may start bothering you, and you could worry about losing it all. Often, when our very best dreams come true, we might not be ready for the problems that come with them, leading to regret. This reminds us that while reaching for our dreams is important, we should also be prepared for the challenges that success can bring.
