Then you find your life was a lie. You're not even you. These weren't your goals.
How can you trust yourself to take another step. What can you pursue? Will your new ideals wreck the work of a lifetime? Will you awaken again and realize this too is not who you are?
Each time you awake from a dream, everything you cared about moments before washes away. The same is true when you leave this plane and consciousness awakes in the next. With each successive level of mind, your most ardent desires will change. For some, this may also happen mid life, as a crisis of consciousness.
It is not always about mortality, but about regret. Time wasted.
If your steps brought you to the door of evolved consciousness, then you walked true. Do not mourn losses.
Have faith that nothing is wasted. Every precious moment brings you closer to the next.

The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. - (a translation from the poem To a Mouse by Robert Burns)
