Where will I be in ten years? This is a question I often reflectively pose to myself. How can one simple question, containing just seven little words, be full of such endless possibilities and outcomes?

On the night of March 12th, 1942 my family and I were sound asleep. Suddenly, the door crashed open and we were awakened by four discordant German officers. Leaving all our precious belongings behind, we were forced to board the cattle cars of a train. Terrified, my family along with hundreds of others were crammed into the overflowing railroad cars.
