My lock-down project has been to research my family history. (I first started this many years ago when everything was on microfiche and index cards!) Now with the luxury of the internet I've managed to find some fascinating family members including...
My Husband's 13 x great-uncle who was part of the gang who stopped Guy Fawkes! (Apparently pushing the 'torch' out of his hand to stop it lighting the fuse!) On my own side, I’ve traced my direct line back to Vikings! Yep, seriously. Me and 'Bernard the Dane' are blood relatives. (Would have preferred a slightly more Viking-ish name like Eric Bloodaxe etc... But Berny was in fact a Prince of Denmark, so I won't complain too much!) Whether you know any of your family history or non at all, I believe that these people have some influence in our lives, but I am also very aware of all the non-blood relatives, friends and acquaintances that have had an impact too! So, what is the legacy I'm leaving behind? As someone who helps people grow and develop, I wonder how my present-day interactions might impact current and future generations? My hope is that I help others tap into their sense of curiosity and creativity and like my Viking ancestors I'm known for exploring new terrains and unafraid to try out uncharted waters. Who do you think you are? #CuriousLighthouse #CreativeLearning Comments are closed.
