I think there are lots of dreams which have come true in my life. The most important dream which came true to me is that I have managed to be there twice when my favorite football team played, as I live far away from Munich and it was a dream since I was a little child to be able to see them live. I was never in Munich, but they were two times in the country I live and so I could fulfill my dream. Not to mention that I have met some of the players on the street and even the most valuable German player, Franz Beckenbauer. I know this sounds strange to many people, but this was a childhood dream which was fulfilled.

Yes, but many would consider this type of dreams like childish or so. But it made me very happy and proud, and this is the most important thing.

I had a dream about love. I wanted to find "Mr Right" and I wanted to get married one day. I met my husband in 2008 and we got married one year later My husband and I wanted to buy a house on an island in the southern part of Denmark. Today we have our own house and we live the island where we wanted to live. I am an artist and I wanted to have exhibitions and be able to sell some of my paintings. I have had exhibitions and I have sold some of my paintings. Those are the 3 most important dreams that have come true for me. I have also had to give up dreams and I have been through many failures, but I try to focus on the positive things and the dreams that actually came true

My main one was my "dream job". I grew up in a period when computers were still coming into popular use and, since it's the only thing I've ever been able to do without trying, I wanted to get into that. At that time, office gurus got huge salaries, went to work in jeans and a t-shirt, grew their hair long - it was quite an opportunity compared to the "suited and booted" norm.
Of course, by the time I was qualified, everything had changed and gurus were almost extinct. Major bummer.
By pure chance, I landed a job with a company where I could go to work in jeans and a t-shirt (because I had no direct contact with clients). I turned into the local office computer guru, grew my hair long and earned stupidly large amounts of money. It really was my dream job. Then came 9/11, the stock market took a nose-dive and the company started acting more like "big business" than the fun family it had always been (strangely, since it was very big business but still managed to feel fun). I got out.

I don't think I ever had a dream or aspiration I just tried to survive and stay alive.
I said I always would like to get married and have children. I got both although the marriage was one of the most one of the worst parts in my life and I am still happy (it's already 20 years ago) I found the courage to save myself.
