Our true sense of purpose in life comes as a gradual discovery and growth of a purpose we did not know in our early years.

We will have discovered these goals may or may not be met. New goals can be set, new dreams pursued. This becomes a journey of growth.
The danger is to take the path of a never-ending drive toward self gratification.
