Did you ever have a wish come true?

People have so many beliefs and superstitions. One of them is making a wish. When you see a shooting star, make a wish. Throw a coin in a wishing well and then your wish will come true. While blowing out the candles on your cake on your birthday, you silently make a wish. Of all the wishes that you've made, has one ever come true?

Heh for me wishes and hopes are a motivation to keep me move on in my life. I hope I will have a Ninja King car in the future, I wish I will be able to enter the University of Nottingham, these wishes keep on motivating me and serve as a target that I would really like to achieve in my life. So yeah, I kinda always do throw a coin down the wishing well or something like that, and yeap, there are some wishes in my life that had came true XD.

Glad your wishes came true, greentea. Dreams, wishes, desires - they help us in setting our goals for the future. God bless you as your wishes come true. Thanks :)

I wished to travel around the world. This amazingly happened to me at age 20 to 21 years old. I had been made redundant from my job and it had been impossible to find another job. I let out my cottage, got a working holiday visa and bought an airline ticket around the world. On my fantastic trip I visited California, Hawaii, Fiji, Australia, Indonesia and Malaysia. In Australia I found work as a children's nanny, a charity collector and a factory packer. I wished to see more places in the South Pacific. I was able to travel there after my teaching contact ended when I was 29 years old. I went to California, French Polynesia, the Cook Islands and Samoa.

I can't remember a wish I made that has come true. But the prayers I made were answered. It took a lot of time 'though.

Cause what we wish sometimes are unlikely to happen. But it sure nice to know your prayers were answered even if it took a long time. Thanks, mylene!

Maybe wishes are meant not to come true? Thanks and Cheers!

Of course they came true. But it is because I have exerted effort to attain my goals in life. It's not in the candle that I blow during my birthday nor whenever I see a shooting star, although I believe in them. Lastly, with God's grace, I was able to reach them one by one :)
