(113,581 posts)4. excellent. I caught a few minutes on cnn (channel flipping) earlier, and the talking head
was actually talking about what an incredible role model princess leia was, and is, especially for very young women. she faced down the meanest, toughest villain in the galaxy (her father, though she did not know it) without even batting an eye. courage, grace, ability, strength, determination, resolve, conviction, passion. . . . I could go on, but my eyes are misting.
Carrie, on every level, whether on screen, stage, page, or in the physical world, you were an amazing example for women everywhere. You are missed.
