It reminds me that no matter how horrible my life is at the time, it probably will never be as bad as Anne had it. We should consider ourselves lucky.

Exactly! We haven't had to go through half of what she did. Not even close. We should be happier with the things that we have.

Yeppers. This is why I think more people should read this book.

Definitely. Then maybe we'd be more thankful for what we do have instead of taking the simple things for granted. Anne had to be grateful for so many of those simple things when she and her family were in hiding. They had to make the best out of every day, even when they were facing adversity.

So true. They had to be totally careful all the time. They had to make sure that they didn't eat too much food at once, they had to be quiet during the day so no one knew they were in hiding and couldn't have many lights on night or else they could be seen... Dang, that's a lot of being careful!

That is. It sounds so challenging, like life was always a struggle and you had to watch every move almost. I can't imagine living like that. Anne was so strong, so was everyone who lived in that annex.

It did take a lot of bravery. Wow. It's amazing that they were able to do that for two entire years.
