Going Back to my Roots.
On Reflection – My Journal
I am sat here in our kitchen, it’s quiet apart from the air conditioning, the birds tweeting outside to each other the sound of tapping on the keys of my laptop. Semi-silence, no music, no T.V.
I can think fairly clearly. Therefore, I am taking time to reflect.
This may turn out to be deep.
Who am I?
No I haven’t got amnesia.
I am a wife, a mother, a friend, a colleague, a neighbour.
What else I ask myself?
How do I see myself?
What do I want out of life?
You would have thought by now I would know. But do we ever know? Life is always moving and changing, each day is different.
I decided to go back and look at my Core Brand Values.
What three things do I want to be known for.
This is harder than to pinpoint that I thought. What other people see in you, isn’t sometimes what you see in yourself.
I am
- Passionate
- Supportive
- Authentic
I then decided to research these descriptive words, to see if there was a common denominator.
- Passionate
Fervent, Zealous, Obsessive, Fanatical, Adoring, Loving, Enthusiastic.
- Supportive.
Loyal, Kind, Sympathetic, Compassionate , Understanding, Encouraging, Caring, Empathetic.
- Authentic
True, Reliable, Dependable, Faithful, Trustworthy, Genuine, Realistic.
Oh my goodness, I feel quite humble.
To say that my eventual chosen profession was Nursing, Midwifery and English Law.
I would say a perfect fit with my Core Brand Values
I wear my heart on my sleeve, I dislike injustice, I cry when I am happy, I cry when I am sad.
Proud of my family.
Proud or myself.
Where will this lead?
More to come. I am sure.

Hi Geraldine
That’s lovely to read your blog, it’s so insightful and inspiring. You were always a person that did the right thing for the right reason in the right way and such a respected role model. You quite obviously love your life in America and have a great network of friends. I wish you all the best and hope that I can model some of your values in my life.
With love
Caroline
