Anne, in her retrospective about her life from 1942 to the beginning of 1944, gives details about changes in her character. What does she write about the first and second half of 1943?

Anne prays to God to give her a different personality that does not antagonize others. Slowly, however, we see Anne taking more responsibility for her actions. She also shows more awareness of the realities outside the annexe. She knows that Jews are being sent to the camps by the thousands. She recognizes that her family is fortunate to be hiding in the annex.
