They continued to live in fear of being discovered. They had to keep very quiet and pass time together as well as they can, they were helped by the office workers. Those helped would not only arrange food but also clothes, book and helped them contact the outside world. I cannot believe what Anne frank had to go through during the years of her life having to hide, she lived in cramped spaces and had to eat less food than she was used to. She could not go outside she feared she might get discovered and get shot. “We’re so fortunate here, away from the turmoil.

Anne is in hiding she is isolated from the pain of others and that makes her feel grateful that she is safe and with her family but at the same time she is feeling quietly that she is safe while her friends are in the outside world suffering and there is nothing she can do to help
