Q #7

This play reveals about us about how humans are foolish that when humans do not have freedom, they search for it, but when they gain freedom, they suffer for too much freedom. Anne Frank and her family desires freedom during the Holocaust. However, modern people suffer because of the freedom to love, freedom to attempt murder, and tons of other freedoms that they have. Humans did not gain happiness either when they did not have freedom or did have freedom. Perhaps, humans cannot gain happiness by themselves.
Power of love is so strong that it can give happiness to people nearby. In the play, since Anne was happy, other people became happy, too.
Courage and hope makes a person happy that they have future. Courage and hope is also a process to a goal. When a person have courage and hope, even though they do not reach the goal they are happy because they have tried best to gain courage and hope in a miserable situation. However, if a person do not have courage and hope, sadness and depression are the process to his or her goal. Even though that person reaches his or her goal, since his or her process were fulfilled with sadness and depression, the achieved goal will not give him or her happiness.
The theme of this play is happiness. This relates to "Prison Break." In "Prison Break," two men tries to put Burrows into death. However, one of them decides to take a risk and quit that job because he was not happy with it. Though he faces death, at least, his death was justice.
