When I was younger I was far more ambitious. I was a politician. I was the chairman in a political youth organisation, active on the student board, MDA association. I thought I was pretty good at leading people. Somehow the ambitions went from wanting an administrative position or to be head master or at least a head teacher, to being content doing what I was doing the best, teaching. That happened around the same time when I realized that it should be so that the man should be the head of the family.
I noticed I preferred far more male than female bosses when looking back at different jobs I have had. And now I wouldn't even apply for a leading position. Only if someone really asks me or if there are no better candidates. Yesterday a student said she thought I was a born leader. I was a bit surprised, because 10 years ago I would have really liked that comment, but now I just laughed and thought the whole idea was ridiculous. Is it God that has worked on me to become more humble? Or is it so that a woman's place is not to be the leader over men?
