pickme: you make a valid point. I agree with you that some 'dreams' are never fullfilled, because they are never pursued. However, this questions asks if we are consumed by a 'false' desire - (eg. the media) and therefore even if we do 'succeed' , have we really lost touch with our 'real selves'? Sorry to be complex.
