Now I know why most people read this book at least once in their lives. Anne's self-awareness, reflection, compassion, ability to self-soothe, and still find gratefulness in her life in one of the most horrific times in history is so humbling. She held onto her own convictions and self-worth with such strength, no matter how hopeless and lonely things became. So many of these qualities I'm only just getting the hang of in my 30s. Again, truly humbling.
