Simplified Meaning:
When people stop having dreams and desires, it feels like they've lost an important part of their life. Wanting things, like a better job, learning new skills, or even simple joys like a nice meal, gives life energy and purpose. For example, think about a retired person who no longer has goals or activities they look forward to; they often feel lonely and bored. On the other hand, a retiree who pursues hobbies, spends time with family, and sets personal goals stays lively and engaged. This shows that having something to look forward to keeps life exciting. Anyone can use this idea by always setting new goals for themselves, no matter how small, to keep feeling motivated and alive.
