Note to self, care about your inner child The temptation to write a few words about „Anne of Green Gables” is irresistible. Why do we love this green-eyed girl? The book was published in 1908, but the description of the main character is still so… modern. Anne’s imagination run away with her, but at the same time people around the girl make allowances for her. She fights about her values with all her might and main and always speaks her mind. Adults couldnt’t break Anne of it. Nowadays we could diagnose her with ADHD. So what? It’s judgemental. I guess she shows us how to treat our inner child. Maybe we need more compassion for ourselves and less criticism. I hope you don’t let your inner child die a slow death from self-criticism.
