I remember a story about my late great uncle's life-changing dream.

One night, he dreamed that he and a girl whom he had never met were walking down a road when she put her head on his shoulder. When he awoke, he couldn't get the image of the girl out of his head. This eventually lead to the breakup of his first engagement.

Years later, he was at a county fair or somesuch when he happened to spot the girl who had appeared in his dream. He introduced himself. Nothing came of this right away, not least because she was only 15 at the time and he was something like 26; but they kept in touch and they eventually got married after she came of age. (How long after, I don't know. Probably a year or so.) They remained married for 62 years, if memory serves, until he died in an accident on their farm.

I don't know if my great aunt is still alive. If she is, she would be pushing 110. The last time I saw her, she was still kicking at 102.
