Sticking up for what you believe in builds your self- respect because you're following through with your values. Going against what you believe in just because it's more convenient is less than admirable. Standing your ground also gains respect from others, even if they view things differently than you
It's important to stand up for what you believe in because if you don't, people will never understand.
About a couple weeks ago, I came out as non-binary to my mother, and she asked me why...."because I feel comfortable that way..." I said. Then, she retaliated with "Well, if a guy was watching child p### on his computer, should we accept him for who he is because he's 'comfortable'? No." Of course, this was no where related to the topic at hand. I had to explain to her what it meant, and now she is trying to get use to the new changes.
...sorry for the little rant, but it seemed like it would fit...hope this helped ^^
I liked reading the narrative more, because I think it gives a clearer picture of what Anne was really thinking while she was in hiding. It was fun to see what hiding was like from Anne's perspective rather than from a director and actors on a stage.
