Did you ever have a wish that never came true?

When I was a child. I wish to have wings and fly up in the sky. This wish never came true because I am still a human being.
I don't know why I like this wish. The superheroes in cartoons made me have this aspiration, such as Superman. It is my old-time favorite character. I even wanted to be an angel. 
Any wishes that never came true in your life?
Are you still chasing this dream of yours?

I learned long time ago, to remain realistic. Being disabled will do that.

@Shavkat Nothing wrong with wishful thinking. It was always hard for me to, when reality always found a way to but into my life.

@kaylachan There are some points in life that we need to accept the constraints. But we can still do wish since it is free to do so, right?

Well, your wish is not that far away from becoming a reality. Transhumanist technology is working on making either real, physical wings (not very suitable for the current shape of the human body) or mechanical wings that make people cyborgs. To me, it would be preferable to other types of transportation. :)

@Shivram59 For now, scientists need to produce more vaccines for this killer virus.

I had so many wishes during my childhood years. Some of them came true, like to graduate in a medical field which I did.
It has been a long time that I didn't blow birthday candles and wish. It is because I don't have birthday cakes as a grown-up man.

I have plenty of wishes that never came true. The last wish I made was one that did come true but it was something that had a 50% chance of coming true anyway! I am, I suppose, still chasing the dream of becoming a published author of a 'proper' book!

@Shavkat thank you. I have had small things published. A poem here and there, two ebook children's stories that are only a couple of pages long, a self-published book of poetry and a short story that I really like but is only 7 pages long. I'm working on one with several chapters now. I intended to complete it a couple of years ago but still hardly half way through!
Good luck with yours.

@pumpkinjam I hope I can do it soon. If I am going to retire, I will be an author or something. Thank you for the encouragement.

I had lots of wishes as a kid that never came true. One was an American Girl doll and a swing set never had either as a kid. I also wished for a baby sister with red hair and freckles that never happened either.
It’s good to have wishes and dreams even if you never reach them.

I wanted to be an Astronaut. This was in 1967 when Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon. But I couldn't because all the canidates for the astronaut training programs had to have 20/20 vision, and I don't I have always had to wear glasses since I was 6 years old. . . so no going to the moon for me.
