Anni - The Perfect Wisdom Web

a n n iwas due in part to the political opinions of its director,Fräulein Schulze. National Socialist thinking and attitudeswere beginning to take hold across Germany, andshe had subscribed to these ideas in the time since Annihad worked there the previous summer. Anni felt out ofplace and lost.d i a r yApril 3, 1931It is almost a year since I wrote in here. And what hashappened since then? Much and nothing. It seems as ifthe world has come to a standstill for me, or rather I havecome to a standstill and am one of those who have grownold while the new generation has already developedcompletely different ways of thinking. Why is that? It isbecause of the weakening relationships with those of myown age and with other people in general.If I stop to consider what has been gained in this firstyear of my working life, it is desperately little. With howmuch enthusiasm and faith in the future did I finish mybig paper last August! In spite of everything, I stand byit fully even now, but I no longer have any faith in it. Alltheory seems to me senseless in the face of this reality.This year at Gettenbach will always be a black spot. It isno service either to the children or to the home. It is moreor less just earning money. How well I can understand itthat young people are disgusted with the career system tothe point of simply running away. Often enough I havefelt like that too.94
