Overview

"Recalling and recording memories of his journey from the boundaries of his village horizons to the realization of his dreams and the rewards of his determination, the author, Lampis Anagnostopoulos, not only gained strength for climbing to new summits, but also appreciated the multiple ""blessings in disguise."" These include the deprivations and suffering during war, the threat of the communist guerillas, the antagonistic or hostile reactions to his resolution to become a physician, etc. and all fortified his determination. His gratitude for support and inspiration from friends and mentors remains deeply engraved and inexpressible in words. Finally, he hopes some young individuals will decide after reading this book that ""if he could do it, I can do it"" and appreciate ""the harder the struggle, the more glorious the victory."""
