And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren't any other people living in the world.

I think it is a statement reflecting the impossibility of her preventing her eventual demise. Now that demise does not only suggest she may have intuited her elimination by the Nazis but that she had difficulty having a pure heart free of the hostilities the Nazis instilled. She harbored a lot of hate and misgivings in her heart about what would happen to her at the hands of the German dictatorship, this is what I am trying to say.

Not wanting to be tainted by the evil of men, she continually had to get her heart right, refusing the revenge, the hatred, the bitterness that could grow & replacing it w/love & understanding & forgiveness, knowing what is right & eventually becoming what she intended to become, rather than giving into the fleshly, carnal thoughts & feelings that could so easily overtake a person and make her what SHE DID NOT WANT TO BECOME.

We live in such a sh**ty world, ppl so cruel and hideous to one another, you have to have a thick skin and not let yourself be hurt or influenced by them. You also have to keep decency alive in yourself and not allow yourself to become like them.
