She recorded the incidents that happened in her life in her crowded hiding place by means of what was funny and pleasant, so little of sadness or the disaster was implied inside her story. Occasionally, in some, she pried into the small disputes that emerged among the persons who lived jostling in that place.

Moreover, she often dreamed about how pleasant it was under the sun rays and fresh air outside her hiding place. All that she wrote without asking to be pitied. Her life always was full of big hopes. Apart from all of her suffering, Anne could be still writing the sentence like, "I continued to be sure that human kind basically was indeed good." In other parts of her diary, she wrote about the growth of the feeling of Anne's love for the adolescent boy of the other family who lived with them in the hiding place.
