It means if you get what you wish for you have no dreams left to fulfil, no sense of achievement so everything after that is an anti climax. |

yeah cos when your dreams all come true you have nothing left to dream about and therefore nothing to wish for and nohing to look forward to getting or achieving |

it's not the end-result that matters, it's the process |

I think there is some truth in this. However it depends how quick your dreams come true. If too quick it is the same as if it takes too long. |

well sometimes what u wish for is not necessarily the best for you ex: you been wanting this girl for a long time you finally get her and she s not all cracked up to be what ur expectations had set you up for and leave you feeling stupid and unfulfilled or if you reach your goals then of course you ll have to set more and that would get frustrating too |

I think it goes like "Be carful what you wish for, you might just get it" :-)
Very thru, the more I get what I plane for, the more disappointed I have been |

"The thrill of the chase". . . it's true. It may be the desire we crave, not the ownership. |

I wished for a new bed but now my dreams are not what I wished for. I wish I could just wake up from this dream cos I wish it was all a dream in this bed. |

Well, usually, depends what the wish is. For say, a child wants this toy, called, Amazing Ally, and finally, after waiting for a long time, her parents give in and get her the toy. It costed one hundred dollars, but sooon the child got bored off it, and through it away. In that example, you see that, advertising is the real probelm, or that humans are too selfish. But, a girl, as another example, could want the Amazing Ally, and saves up her Money to buy it. When she has earned enough, she goes to the store. Looking t the doll she saved up for, she didn't like it all. So instead of buying the doll, she bought paint set, which she used everyday after that. In the example, it shows that some humans, think twice before buying something, and spend it on another, which they do love. Does that answer your question? |

Yep that is what happened with kind Midas and the whole "midas touch". He got all the gold he desired but he couldnt have anything else. |

The Ancient mayans once had boats that they would sail down the river in. One day they wished for dreams and the next day they came true. They were not disappointed or unhappy. |

the saying is "Be careful what you wish for...it might come true"
i think what this means is people sometime wish for things without thinking about the consequences or they make wishes without really knowing if thats what they really want or not. |

That's because people usually wish for money and material things. It's nice to have those, but it's not what they REALLY want. |

That's why at the beginning of that saying is...Be careful what you wish for. |
