These “Annex” people could live with hope by remembering all of the goodtimes they had together, before they had to go into hiding. They had hopebecause they knew one day this would all have to end. Although the “Annex”people were probably stronger than most other people would be, this is becausesome people just cant live knowing that there can be some people in the worldwho have such hatred in them, that they would just want to see you die! Thefamilies of Mr. and Mrs.
Frank and Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan did this by stayingtogether as a family and of all the things going on outside, still being able tobe happy and have some fun in the Annex. It was a very hard accomplishment forthem, but they did it for their family.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank had to be strong toshow Anne and Margot that they still had faith and hope. This was as well forMr.
and Mrs. Van Daan and for Peter. After all theyve gone through, theywerent about to give up just right there. These two families were veryfaithful. They strongly believed in their Jewish religion. This is another mainreason they still had hope.
They believed in God and knew that he was watchingover them, and he would take care of them. As each day went by, the familieshope grew, they knew that they were one day stronger and they survived one moreday. They thanked God for this. These families found out the true meaning oflife, how precious life was. With all of the violence outside and the peopledying it was hard for them to have hope.
Yes they were afraid, who wouldntbe. These Germans were waiting to kill them. If someone was waiting to kill you,you would be terrified! This was the way they felt, and above all this theystill had hope! The two families of “Annex” people can still live with hope,because the world has some peace inside of it. They see the world as a beautifulplace that is unfortunately being shattered in the wrong way with the Germans. They have hope because they know that inside of each and every German man therelives a place in there heart where they all want to live in a world that haspeace over every city and countryside. This is inside everybodys hearts, wejust wish we could imagine it that way.
Mr. Kraler and Miep gave both familieshope. This gave the two families a chance to realize that some people in theworld that they live in do care for the Jews. Mr.
Kraler and Miep were two verygenerous people, who took their time wisely and devoted it to people who neededhelp the most! For my conclusion to as why these two families had hope or couldhave hope was because. . . they were desperate and scared. They needed to havehope, for if they didnt they would be depressed.
This was a time when all hadgone wrong and people had gone mad. It was a time where all Jews had losteverything and all they had inside of them was hope. Hope that one day thiswould all end and that they could live in peace. This was all the Jews reallyever wanted, they wanted to live in peace. They never did hurt a soul, they werejust living the life that God gave them.
And all they could do was hope, hopethat one day this would all end. .
