Curves Welcome Blog
Welcome to my blog where you are free to interact in a safe, friendly place. I come here often to write about my writing journey, positive living, taking action and inspirations.
Here’s Why I Blog:
Writing helps me sort out life’s twists and turns. Life is certainly full of them, offering lessons at every bend in the road. With each curve I come across, a new message seems to stare me in the face, begging for me to take notice, learn from it, and move onward. If I didn’t write, I don’t know if I’d stop and listen to what life is trying to teach me. You see, I’m always on the lookout for interesting adventures to ponder and then reflect on through stories and blog posts. Writing books is my fuel, and exploring ideas through blogging is my catalyst.
Please feel free to explore past posts and join in the discussions.
Wishing you the best always!
Love,
Suzie

Relax with Deep Breathing

The Dance by Suzie Carr
I started to write The Dance after watching a TedTalk video with Dr. Marla Spivak about the declining honeybee populations. I immediately felt the need to write a story that would bring to light ways an individual could learn about these magnificent creatures and help...
Everything is Temporary
Recently a friend of mine ran into some troubling adversity. I tried earnestly to say something that would help, but I was at a total loss for words. The situation was a tough one, and no words seemed adequate. What do you say to someone who suffers from devastating...
Get Outside of Your Comfort Zone

Be Ready for Opportunity
Opportunity is everywhere and available to all of us. We only need to open our eyes to it. Then, it’s up to us to recognize and take hold of it. It took me decades to understand this concept about opportunity. There was a time when I would say, “Wow, that person is so...
Being Authentic
I did it. I took an important authentic step forward. I looked that irrational fear in the eye and told it to go away, for good. It was no longer welcomed in my life. My Authentic Step On Wednesday, January 13, 2016, I had the extreme pleasure of ‘coming out’ as my...
Living in the Present Moment
“That’s the problem these days. We’re all too busy, aren’t we? We work ourselves to the bone and for what? To find out one day that we may have caused ourselves to get sick? So then we end up spending the rest of our days fighting for our lives instead of being able...
