IF:Diary

This week: Diary.  Well, i never really kept a diary growing up.  i would get them and start whole-heartedly writing daily…until about a week later when i gave up, or forgot or decided i didn’t like something i wrote in a previous entry and would have to forfeit all knowledge of myself.  You see, I have a scary belief about writing so truthfully…someone may someday read it.  That alone has scared me into thinking I must write only things that I wouldn’t mind someone else reading.  Stupid, I know…especially since people like Anne Frank exist.  Every time I think about her, or see her photograph(she resembles my mother) I feel sorrow and I am all at once proud and ashamed to be human.  So, in her honor i spent an hour drawing her lovingly from my favorite snapshot.  She is so happy and her hair is flipping in every which way.  What a brave diary she wrote. annefrank
