Heh, sorry -
The Inner Light is practically the ur-example of this kind of story, at least amongst sci-fi/fantasy geeks - all you have to do is say "it's like that episode where Picard lived a whole lifetime in one afternoon" and people will know what you mean.
(Pleas do watch it if you haven't, it's generally considered one of the best episodes of the whole series.)
