Tranquility fills the dull atmosphere. Not knowing how much water the clouds contain before the downpour begins, we innocently prepare ourselves for an endless journey; a journey to find the purpose of life. A droplet of rain trickles down the top of your head, following a shower of many other droplets. Lightning and rumbles of thunder fill the sky. Many hesitate between continuing their journey or hiding from this storm; an umbrella can only offer limited protection against fast winds and biting raindrops. Many describe storms in a frightening way, but strong-willed individuals who welcome the storm think with positivity: rain changes the environment and gives life to the world. Once the rain subsides, the exhausted and exhausted atmosphere returns to the calm and tranquil environment it once was. The sky, once filled with dark, murky clouds, fills with blue. We can either face the challenge presented to us to move forward, or refuse and remain caught in a storm. An individual's view of the world has immense power in determining whether the obstacles they encounter will result in failure or success. It is the mindset with which we approach life's challenges that determines the positive or negative outcomes of our life. The Diary of Anne Frank depicts perseverance in the characteristics of an individual in times of despair. This shows that the way you live depends on one's perspective and mentality towards the world. Written by Anne Frank herself, this diary tells the perspective of a distraught teenage girl living during the Holocaust. Anne writes about her feelings of isolation and loneliness, each entry in her diary maturing over time. Despite its situation where it was put in the middle of paper ......eams; he left his rainstorm and worked hard to achieve the position he wanted to hold. His success was based on his mindset and what he believed he could achieve. We are all individuals caught in an unwanted storm. Not knowing when it will end, we must decide whether to push through it or hide from it. There will be days of endless struggle in our life, when the rain will hit like bullets on our skin. However, our mentality and our approach to situations have a lot of influence on your ability to move forward or stay the same in the face of an obstacle. The power to weather the storm or hide from it begins, continues and ends within ourselves. The storm won't last forever. No matter what the sun will always shine, just look for a brighter tomorrow.
