Anne Frank

Anne is real. She demonstrates an ability to reflect and understand herself in a way that many are sure to with they were capable of. She's observant and honest, fearless to speak her mind and often grumbles at the consequences. One of too many losses.

For years I've known much about her story, but never read her diary. How strange it is for me after nearly 20 years of fascination, I delve into this tiny piece of history. Throughout reading, my heart broke knowing how it all turned out. Seeing Margot's intelligence and Anne's spirit all the while knowing they both died only weeks before liberation.

sometimes it’s taking time for yourself. sometimes it’s crying for hours and hours. sometimes it’s relapsing. sometimes it’s being mad and angry and frustrated. sometimes it’s seeking help. sometimes it’s just talking it out. sometimes it’s forcing yourself to eat. sometimes it’s reliving something traumatic. sometimes it‘s wanting to scream. sometimes it’s singing your favorite songs very loudly. sometimes it’s laughing with your friends about stupid things you did. sometimes it’s having hard conversations.
