Dreams, goals, aspirations-everyone has at least one. We've all got something we long for in our lives, whether we admit it or not. From material possessions to the cravings of the soul, having a dream is something innate to us humans. We've all seen or heard stories of success or heroic redemption arcs, and all of them have one thing in common-it all started from one simple dream. From there, it was only a matter of making the dream come to life.

This is the reality Kristine found herself in, with a looming feeling of dissatisfaction every step of the way.
