It was on this day in 1944 that Anne Frank made the decision to rewrite her diary as an autobiography. She wrote: "I know that I can write, a couple of my stories are good, my descriptions of the 'Secret Annex' are humorous, there's a lot in my diary that speaks, but whether I have real talent remains to be seen."
She is a burning flame of light in the dark world she lived in and even today- her words ring true. A gentle soul and a hero for all time.
