morgans connection

Throughout the main parts of the Diary of Anne Frank, she talks about all of her struggles and points of view on the actions taking place during her lifespan. In this (supposed to be) private and personal source, she reveals everything that is going on. Near the genesis of the book, Anne talks about her personal life and how all she really desires is a true best friend. When they are forced to move into hiding, I relate to Anne in so many ways. She tries her best to get along at first becuase she knows that it is her only change of survival during this horrific time of the Nazi ruling let by Adolf Hitler, whose goal is to take control of the world. If I were Anne and I was forced to move into hiding, I might have taken her outlook on it (pretending that it was one long vacation). And I'm sure I would have grown just as old of my family as she did (with the exception of her father). Being in those ridiculously close quarters for that length of time took a large tole on Anne, as it would have taken on any one of us teenage girls. Also like the normal teenage girl, Anne makes nick-names and jokes to herself and to her best friend (her diary Kitty). For instance, Anne has nick-names Mrs. van D. Mrs. Beaverbrook. This is because they believe she should be married to Mr. Beaverbrook because she agrees with everything he says over the radio. Life during that deathly empire for the Jews was highly difficult, but Anne managed to handle it with much grace and as much composure as was possible for a teenage girl who was forbidded anywhere from the house.
