If Anne Frank had survived, she would be 85 years old today. Her Diary, rescued after her family was discovered hiding in the Secret Annex, told the story of World War II and the destruction of the Jewish people as seen through the eyes of a teenager.
I first read her diary in grammar school, and revisited it as an adult. Each time, I am amazed at the persistence of her faith in people - in spite of all she endured, she believed in the good of people.
Happy Birthday!
