I knew when I started a blog site I had to have the name Celtic in the domain.  With a last name like MacDougall, I obviously have some Celtic ancestry.  50%  Scottish to be precise.  I have always identified as being predominately of Celtic origin.  Also,  I live in Cape Breton where Celtic ancestry and heritage play a huge role on the island.

The word ‘beamer’ comes from a course I just finished a few days ago.  It was called ‘Be The Lighthouse’ and it was taught by the amazing Michelle Myrick-Olsen.  It was a self discovery/mindfulness course, which was wonderful.  Michelle referred to the participants as ‘beamers’.  Through this course I was encouraged to pursue my desire to blog, so I wanted to pay tribute to it and therefore used the word ‘beamer’.
