You know this isn't real right? Kind of like how our memories work, we select what parts we want to put up front and push everything else in the back, some of us more creative types can put the pieces together and make a whole new memory from bits we liked about place we've seen experience we had and dreams we peruse. 

If you thought of a place you've always wanted to trail to because of all the wonderful things we hear about it from our friends to the articles we read in a magazine/online we built this expectation of what it would be like so we make plans on what we'll do when we get to that dream place.  

Like one may dream to move to New York City and once they move they find out that rent is x10 more while you get x10 less space and if you're really lucky you might get a parking space. The cost of living is higher, harder to get a job and when you do get one it's harder to keep it. So you take the subway but it's crowded and on the way home you get mugged by a couple who are doing better then you are. True, I highlighted the bad side of NY City however my point is made that our dreams are only the good parts of the picture and not the bad or un expected sides.

Our minds can be incredibly creative as it's used as a coping mechanisms and helps to keep us mentally and physically healthy with out loosing a perspective of reality around us, In short it's a balancing tool.
