Anne Frank's Life
Imagine being stuck in a cramped apartment for two years without being able to go outside and play. That was Anne Frank’s life. Anne Frank was a thirteen year old Jewish girl who went into hiding in a small annex with her family for two years during the Holocaust. Although some people may think the human spirit can triumph over the most difficult circumstances is the theme of Anne Frank, the theme is people need a sense of purpose and direction in their lives. This is the theme because Anne is starting to feel her life has no purpose hiding from the Nnazis.
One reason, why the theme of Anne Frank is people need a sense of purpose and direction in their lives is Anne is tired of being scared and wants to have fun. A piece of evidence (p.497)

    Anne Frank is someone who influenced history long after she was gone, because of her courage, bravery, and willpower that got here and her family through the tough times up until they were seized.

    Bodies laid everywhere, covered in newspaper and stacked on top of one another. The smell was horrible, and buildings were crumbling. This is what it was like for the Jews and other holocaust victims in the warsaw ghetto, but the warsaw ghetto was not the only ghetto during the holocaust. In poland there was at least 1,000 ghettos for the Jews to live in. They had little food and awful living conditions, the Nazis were literally trying to starve them to death. “According to Hitler, Jews were maggots, parasites, vampires, spiders sucking blood, and vermin” (Stewart). Anne Frank was one of many Jewish children to be sent to concentration camps and ghettos, all so Hitler could form his perfect aryan race.

We all should notice that no matter what was going on, Anne was seeing the joy and good in not only life, but in people as well. She showed us who she really was through this life changing experience. Anne demonstrates that we should keep our head held high when we face the struggles of life. If Anne Frank can see the good in things while being persecuted, I know I can. I have learned from the Holocaust that no matter who you are, what you look like, your race, religion, or anything you can think of, we are equal. Now you are probably thinking, “shouldn’t she already know that?” The Holocaust has helped me to see it in a different way. It also showed me how cruel and selfish humans can be and how cruel and selfish I can be. A lesson all humans should know is that we are one. We are equal.
