What is the meaning of the following quote in The Little Prince?

I live by this quote a lot

"It is only in the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." Can you give a personal experience that is connected to the quote?🥺

I have certain goals 10 years from now. It includes things I see the best version of myself having. That’s what my heart wants. I believe that’s what is right. That’s my meaning in life. When it says: “What is essential is invisible to the eye” I think is referring to those moments when you forget about those goals like having a healthy relationship, enjoying your career, being close with your parents as you get older, etc. Those essential things become invisible when we become weak but, only at our highest, nothing will distract us from that future.

So Very Wrong absolutely missing the true narradigm that the little prince recognizes the drawing because the prince is the child inside full of wonder belief and hope.
