Summary

This quote suggests that dreaming and envisioning a better future can be enjoyable when there is no pressure or obligation to turn those dreams into reality. It implies that the process of dreaming is pleasant because it allows for boundless possibilities and escapes from reality. However, when faced with the reality of working towards those dreams, where challenges, risks, and responsibilities come into play, the enjoyable nature of dreaming wanes. It highlights the contrast between the carefree mind of imagination and the burdensome aspect of actualizing dreams in real life.
