Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.

I am what a romantic movie is to a profound thinker - a mere diversion, a comic interlude, something that is soon forgotten.

Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I’ve never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year old school girl. Oh well, it doesn’t matter. I feel like writing.

I don't want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I've never met. I want to go on living even after my death!

Riches, power and fame last only for a few years! Why do people cling so desperately to these transitory things? Why can't people who have more than they need for themselves give that surplus to their fellow citizens? Why should some people have such a hard time during their few years on this earth?

I long to ride a bike, dance, whistle, look at the world, feel young and know that I'm free, and yet I can't let it show. Just imagine what would happen if all eight of us were to feel sorry for ourselves or walk around with the discontent clearly visible on our faces. Where would that get us?

Then, without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day of course, you achieve quite a lot in the course of time. Anyone can do this, it costs nothing and is certainly very helpful. Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that a quiet conscience makes one strong.

As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?

At any rate, Daddy usually comes to my defence. Without him I wouldn't be able to stick out here.

And you can always, always, give kindness
Anne Frank

But feelings can't be ignored, no matter how unjust or ungrateful they seem.
Anne Frank
Image
I love you, with a love so great that it simply couldn't keep growing inside my heart, but had to leap out and reveal itself in all its magnitude.
Anne Frank
Image
The reason for my starting a diary is that I have no real friend.
Anne Frank

Thinking about the suffering of those you hold dear can reduce you to tears in fact, you could spend the whole day crying.

leave me in peace, let me sleep one night at least without my pillow being wet with tears, my eyes burning and my head throbbing

I want to write, but more than that, I want to bring out all kinds of things that lie buried deep in my heart.
