Curio’s Incredible Journey -4 By Stuart Young

Posted on May 8, 2012 by Soma Mukherjee
A good story will never let you down
in this land of story you will find everything
flying horses,talking frogs,dancing dragons
and if you are a dreamer like me
you will know how some of the characters of stories
will be after your life
and some will be there to help you out
what you learn from each story will be yours
for, a good story will never let you down
 it will teach you something very valuable
may be about you or the choices you will make
some of the stories will give you mantra
and some will be cautionary tales
But a good story will never let you down
will teach you new songs
will weave its  magic through your emotions
stir some ripples in your heart
which will help you connect with fellow humans
will help you understand others better
for a good story will never let you down
you will cry,laugh and travel with them
and dream about them
they will heal your soul
soothe some raw nerves
some may bring back to life things you buried deep inside
BUT A GOOD STORY WILL NOT LEAVE YOU UNTOUCHED
IT WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN

Stuart Young’s 4th book on the Adventures of Curio the Sloth is out …what joy 🙂
Curio listens to his inner voice and understands his dreams and starts this journey on this path never travelled before and boy does he face danger.
Stuart shocked me with the 4th part,imagine cute little sloth on a raft in mid sea drifting to nowhere cos a storm sent him off his course…oh my heart goes out to the little brave soldier. what happened to cute little Curio?
Will he reach land,wasn’t the sea shark infested..Did Curio survive those treacherous waves and the hungry monsters..read it out to know more.
But will have to warn you,this isn’t just a sweet story anymore..cos like it or not life will not be sweet all the times…and alone you shall be sometimes and scared and find dark tunnels every where you look, some choices you make will be package deals and you will have to embrace everything and make the best of what you get. Discard the ones which are not working,make new plans again….
every road you see and walk on today,if you think it was this easy since the beginning you can’t be more wrong!
but should you stop and go back..may be, but not forever, comeback with a new plan and continue this journey..This my dear is life
GOd made us, gave us this beautiful place to live in and gave us each a basket full of goodies….some, we will like some, we wont but what we do with them will make us….so are you ready 🙂 
are you ready to start this new day with the goodies you have inside
are you ready to walk run and dance on the beautiful song that is life

Are you ready to travel with Curio  🙂

    Excellent! Your words ring true, Mata, as always. Sometimes storms blow us off course and for some there is no way back or out, so we who survive out to make the most of what we have and do our best to thrive. Cheers!

    This is some of the best advice ever: “some choices you make will be package deals and you will have to embrace everything and make the best of what you get. Discard the ones which are not working,make new plans again..” It gets easier the more you live and are open to learning to let go what you can’t change and choose what to stay away from in the future.

    “A GOOD STORY WILL NOT LEAVE YOU UNTOUCHED”
    That is very true. The trouble is there are a lot of stories that are not that good.
