Title and Major Milestone

The title of this autobiography reflects a major milestone in my life. The dream refers to my desire to enter a university after high school and become a professor, an idea planted in my head by my mother.

Obstacles and Shadows

The shadows intervened in several ways. First, directly bearing on my ultimate goal were the discriminatory laws imposed upon Germany by Hitler, solely to artificially validate his illusions about race and ethnicity. Another shadow that darkened my perception of the world was the loss of my son.

Fulfillment

Fulfillment occurred when I became a distinguished professor at the highest levels of my profession.
