finding my inner Pippi longstocking…again

9.03.2007 | Toothless Tiger

In my honest opinion – Pippi longstocking is the closest to a perfect rolemodel for girls. Pippi is the strongest girl in the world, she fight for her own way of living, she does things her own way. in other words – I think that Pippi is the girl I know who is the closest to her own self and her own expression. Lately I have been rereading Germaine Greer’s ” the female eunuk” which -everytime I read it – puzzles me a great deal – bottom line is, whether you like Germaine Greer or not – that you should stay true to yourself and your own beliefs and expression.

My beloved (now deceased) grandfather always taught me that for his sake I could do whatever I wanted in the world… as long as I faced the consequences.
I was taught selfmanagement at the age of 3 and have always been a rebel and a provocateur at large. I don’t like control. when you control people or you let people control you – you loose a little part of yourself, you become fragmented.

That’s why I want to find my inner Pippi- she’s there somewhere – she just got to used to the good life =)

Pippi is the foremost rolemodel of any time for me. I JUST LOVE HER strenght, creativeness and integrity.

she is a true innovative self leader that knows how to share value. Find your inner Pippi and you need not look further…

exactly my thoughts =)
