Every event in this story was a fact and makes us think a lot of things about us.

One detail in the story of this reflection is when Ana lose her home because he had to hide, and she had a very good life there. Other reflection we can make is that the human being can do everything to survive while he has an objective, and this happen more when that human being has people he love because their objective would be protect that persons and when you love someone and your objective is to protect her, you will be unstoppable. This thought or reflection I made is from the events in the story where Otto Frank was searching for solutions to problems to get himself and his family safe.
