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
The Benefits of Scuba Diving
So ever since I got back from my first scuba diving trip (in the Dutch island of Bonaire), I’ve had this really cool feeling of empowerment. You see, since I’ve been back, nothing fazes me anymore. I feel like I can do anything I set my mind to. Scuba diving has...

The Secret to Progress
The secret to progress is drive. To move forward takes time and focus, too. You must be willing to take that first step and keep moving. To progress, one has to be willing to let go of what is known and be open to new adventure. We all have things we want to...
The Writing Process
The Writing Process Blog Tour This is my contribution to the “blog tour” game going around the Internet (#Mywritingprocess). Authors blog about their writing process and then tag someone else to do the same. I was tagged by RJ Samuel, an author who I’ve gotten to know...
Why You Need to Dream Big
We all want things in life. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel greedy in wanting things. I guess this stems from a past of telling myself that I should be grateful for what I have today, and that to want more negates this gratitude. That’s not a healthy way...
Start Living by Facing Fear
“See here’s the thing about fear. The more I allow it in, the stronger it becomes. It takes on its own power and becomes my leader. I’m not okay with following that. I’m not okay with bowing my head to it in reverence, as if it were a mightier force than me and had...
A Provocative Question

What’s Your Mantra
I live by one mantra in particular that has seen me through many stressful moments: “I have my health, therefore I have everything.” A mantra can lift us up. When the rest of the world seems to press against us, a mantra can be that saving grace that helps us get back...
