Meeting Someone Too Late

 I discovered this song on Gavin DeGraw's Chariot Stripped which Tommy and I love, and we thought this song was unique... how often does this happen in real life... and yet this is the first song I know of that describes this very event.

Nice To Meet You Anyway

by Gavin DeGraw

I don't want to get too close
I don't want to get too close
You see this isn't where my head is
If you knew me I'm not like this
But I just found someone special
And that's really something special
If you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

I belive you're very fine
Still I haven't got the time
'Cause I just found someone special
And that's really something special
If you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

And the sky opened up
With the soil of the sun
Dreaming of my true love

I don't mean to be so strange
But my life just took a change
'Cause I just found someone special
And that's really something special
If you knew me
Nice to meet you anyway

And the sky opened up
With the soil of the sun
Dreaming of my true love

So before this goes too far
Let me tell you what you are
You're amazing, I'm attracted
But I'm terribly distracted
And I'm trying to be verbal
And I'm back into this circle
Because I just found someone special
And that's really something special
If you knew me
Nice to meet you

Nice to meet you
Nice to meet you anyway [x4]

And even if you want me to stay here
I'm telling you right now
I should leave
Before I get to changing my mind, dear
I hope you understand what I mean

Playing it safe

If you get out while you are ahead, you will no longer be ahead.  With whatever it is, you will eventually fall behind.  Unless you are willing to accept that consequence, never pull out.

Love and let ______

Sometimes love pops up when you least expect it and it is up to you to decide what to do with it.... embrace it, hide it, or push it away. 

Making mistakes

As long as the world is turning and spinning, we're gonna be dizzy and we're gonna make mistakes.  
- Mel Brooks

Taking action

"Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world."  
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Self-expression through creativity

"Conditions for creativity are to be puzzled; to concentrate; to accept conflict and tension; to be born everyday; to feel a sense of self." 
- Erich Fromm

Staying in the game

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear.  Action breeds confidence and courage.  If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it.  Go out and get busy."
- Dale Carnegie
