FEAR


¨But i'm still alive,Kitty,and that is the main thing,daddy says"
¨I picture concentration camps and lonely cells¨ The Diary of Anne Frank, p.13

When I heard this quote it made me realize I was thinking the same thing. I agree with it though because all these like stereotypes and rumors were going around at the time of the Holocaust and no one actually knew the whole truth until they actually got to the concentration camps.The quote kinda shows people knew but they didn't like know. This proves in the back of their mind, Jews knew that the nazis were going to plan bad things to begin to happen for the. I can already see that Anne´s family and friends aren't really gonna be as worried as other families because they have this idea in the back of their heads.when she goes to the camps because by her picturing it she's preparing herself for the worst. Being alive to me has to be the biggest thing hands down.I agree with her dad about that nothing really matters because they are still alive through  everything that has been making a huge impact on their lives.

The quote reminds me of the theme Hopelessness because Anne is assuming that the concentration camps are like prison cells and are lonely. If she had hope she wouldn't be so scared to go and would be ready for whatever is gonna hit her there but by her and, her family being hopeless nothing good is gonna come in return. It kind of reminds me of Lakers Fans because a lot of the fans lost hope when Kobe was injured and is now out for the rest of the season. I bet if they all had hope they would do something to help the lakers get pumped for the game. If Anne had hope I bet she and her family could make some type of impact no matter how little. Another big thing is the bombings that recently happened in boston over this past week. Those athletes who were running in the marathon were lucky that they didn't lose their lives but to those who did their life has changed a huge amount no and that impact could really hurt their future. In the Holocaust a lot of people were scared after because they lost family and it was just such an overwhelming event that they ended up having disorders they affected them for the rest of their lives.
