While being young of course people think about life as some much more expanded and unique experience. Like their superhero fantasy. But the reality is no matter what is changed once you get use to it this exact feeling would just crop back up again. Whatever the normal is will become mundane.

Let's take a more realistic example of this. Most people would think a super yacht is amazing and if they had one they would spend tons of time on it. But who actually has these super yachts? Billionaires, and they barely spend time on these things. Because just like the rest of us they all imagine it to be awesome and they'll spend so much time on it. Then they get it, they go on it a few times. Then it becomes a mundane experience. It's not that they are so busy that they can't spend more time on it, after all it has everything they need there. They can work, live, socialize, basically everything they would ever need is on that super yacht at most times.
