Guest guest Posted April 26, 2003 Report Share Posted April 26, 2003 >From NDhighlights... The following from http://www.escapefromwatchtower.com/ ANNE FRANK "I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains. This is one of the things that Mummy and I are so entirely different about. Her counsel when one feels melancholy is: 'Think of all the misery in the world and be thankful you are not sharing in it!' My advise is: 'Go outside, to the fields, enjoy nature and the sunshine, go out and try to recapture happiness in yourself and in God. Think of all the beauty that's still left in and around you and be happy!' I don't see how Mummy's idea can be right, because then how are you supposed to behave if you go through the misery yourself? Then you are lost. On the contrary, I've found that there is always some beauty in life - in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself: these can all help you. Look at these things, then you find yourself again, and God, and then you regain your balance." - ANNE FRANK - The Diary of a Young Girl, p. 153 " Attachment: (image/jpeg) annefrank.jpg [not stored] Attachment: (image/jpeg) Clear Day Bkgrd.JPG [not stored] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
