Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love". Neil Gaiman

"You will never know true happiness until you have truly loved, and you will never understand what pain really is until you have lost it

Keep busy at something, a busy person never has time to be unhappy.

We were both young, when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts-
I'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air.

I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns.
I see you make your way through the crowd-
You say hello, little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles-
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet"-
And I was crying on the staircase-
begging you, "Please don't go..."
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet, because we're dead if they knew-
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, Oh.

Cause you were Romeo - I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet" -
but you were everything to me-
I was begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes-

Romeo save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult, but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.
Oh, Oh.

I got tired of waiting.
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading-
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said...

Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting, for you but you never come.
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think-
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad -- go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby just say... yes.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.

'cause we were both young when I first saw you

You're indecisive when it comes to making any plans
You're on the fence
You give me reasons I never seem to understand,
They don't make sense
Maybe ain't enough for my heart
We'll see, ain't off to a great start
Baby, I want you to be mine,
You better hurry ‘cause if I change my mind

[Chorus]
You will never know,
What it means, to love me
And you will never know,
What these two lips taste like to kiss
You can just suppose to what my body feels like to hold
Hope you can deal with, all you will never know

I wanna know you, what's hiding behind this wall
Who you really are
I wanna meet you on the other side of this charade
Wherever the cards may fall
I'm ready to give you my heart
Yea I'm willing to show up for my part
Baby, I want you to be mine,
You better hurry ‘cause if I change my mind

[Chorus/bridge]
You will never know,
What it means, to love me
And you will never know,
What these two lips taste like to kiss
You can just suppose to what my body feels like to hold
Hope you can deal with, all you will never know
About me, what I see, what I believe in,
How I breathe, when I weep

You were born an original. Don't die a copy.

Until one is committed
There is hesitancy, the chance to draw back,
Always ineffectiveness.
Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation),
There is one elementary truth,
The ignorance of which kills countless ideas
And splendid plans: That the moment one definitely commits oneself,
Then Providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one
That would never otherwise have occurred.
A whole stream of events issues from the decision
Raising in one's favor all manner
Of unforeseen incidents and meetings
And material assistance,
Which no man could have dreamt
Would have come his way.
I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe's couplets:
"Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."
-- W.H. Murray, from The Scottish Himalayan Expedition

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
-- Mark Twain

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-- Marianne Williamson

It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting......Before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams master the lessons we have learned as we have moved toward that dream. That's the point at which most people give up.... [At this point] Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity.
-- Paulo Coelho

Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.
-- Erica Jong

People who are 'ready' give off a different vibe than people who aren't. Animals can smell fear; maybe that's it./ The minute you become ready is the the minute you stop dreaming. Suddenly it's no longer about 'becoming'. Suddenly it's about 'doing'."

I love life...Yeah, I'm sad, but at the same time, I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like...It makes me feel alive, you know. It makes me feel human. The only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt something really good before. So I have to take the bad with the good. So I guess what I'm feeling is like a beautiful sadness."

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.

"You are beautiful...when you let friends have their space, when you believe, when you laugh, or are moved to tears, when you let it just roll right off your back, when you talk about your dreams, when you help a turtle across the road, when you try to do the right thing even when it comes out wrong, when you love."

"We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, and hour, an afternoon. But that doesn't diminish its value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives."

"True love endures, if it does not, then it was never true."

People have the right to fly
And will when it gets compromised
Their hearts say "Move along"
Their minds say "Gotcha heart"
Let's move it along
Let's move it along

And airports
See it all the time
Where someone's last goodbye
Blends in with someone's sigh
Cause someone's coming home
In hand a single rose

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And I won't be the last
No I won't be the last,
To love her

And you can't build a house of leaves
And live like it's an evergreen
It's just a season thing
It's just this thing that seasons do

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And you won't be the first
No you won't be the first
To love me

You can find me, if you ever want again
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around,
I'll be around
And if you never stop when you wave goodbye
You just might find if you give it time
You will wave hello again
You just might wave hello again

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now

You can't love too much, one part of it (repeat then fade)

I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give
Return to me
I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give
Return to me
I believe that my life's gonna see
The love I give

"Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived". [William Parrish] from the movie, Meet Joe Black (1998)

Title: Dido - Thank You lyrics



My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why
I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey,
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad,
it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay,
my head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today,
I'm late for work again
And even if I'm there, they'll all imply
that I might not last the day
And then you call me and it's not so bad,
it's not so bad and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last
and I'm soaking through and through
Then you hand me a towel
and all I see is you
And even if my house falls down,
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life

I finally found someone
That knocks me off my feet
I finally found the one
That makes me feel complete

It started over coffee
We strated out as friends
It's funny how from simple things
The best things begin
This time is different
And it's all because of you
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it though
My favouite line was
"Can I call you sometime"
It's all you had to say
To take my breath away

This is it, oh I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one
To be with every night
'Cause whatever I do It's just got to be you
My life has just begun I finally found someone
Did I keep you waiting? I didn't mind
I apologise, baby that's fine

I would wait forever just to know you were mine
You know I love your hair
Are you sure it looks right?
I love what you wear
Isn't it too tight?
You're exceptional I can't wait for the rest of my life
This is it, oh I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one
To be with every night
'Cause whatever I do It's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone
And whatever I do It's just got to be you


My life has just begun I finally found someone
- Bryam Adams

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat,
But always keep that hunger!!!

May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small,
When you stand beside the ocean!!!

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens,
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance...

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance,
I hope you dance....
I hope you dance....

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance!!!

Living might mean taking chances,
But they're worth taking,
Lovin' might be a mistake,
But it's worth making!!!
Don't let some hellbent heart,
Leave you bitter...
When you come close to selling out,
Reconsider!!!

Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance,

I hope you dance...
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance...
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance...
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance...
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small,
When you stand by the ocean...
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens!!!
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance!!!
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance...

Dance...
I hope you dance...
I hope you dance...
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance...
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance...
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance...
(Where those years have gone)
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance...
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

- Lee Anne Womack

Look... If you had... one shot... or one opportunity...to seize everything you ever wanted... one moment...Would you capture it? Or just let it slip? You better lose yourself in the music, the moment You own it, you better never let it go. You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow this opportunity comes once in a lifetime!

There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.

See the target and keep going straight till there is a 'loug bang'....BANG means you hit the target,which is not all that bad after all.

Ever close your eyes, ever stop and listen..Ever feel alive and you've nothing missing..You don't need a reason let the day go on and on"

Dido

The Day Before The Day


Speeches won't be made today, clocks will carry on
flowers wont be left in parks, work will still be done

People wont be dressed in clack, babies will be born
no flags will fly, the sun will rise,
but we know that you are gone

You who love to love and believed we can never give enough

It wakes me every single night, thinking through the day
did you stop at any time have doubts at any stage
were you calm or were you numb or happy just to get it done
i've lived my life without regret until today

You who love to love and believed we can never give enough

I didnt get to say goodbye the day before the day
was trying to get to work on time, thats why i turned away
and missed the most important thing you've ever tried to say
i've lived my life without regret until today

You who love to love and believed we can never give enough
and you who hoped that underneath we all felt the same
that was until the day before the day

I won't leave you out of my will
But I will leave you out of my mind
For now

I won't be there to break your sweet heart
But not being there might break your sweet heart

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy (x4)

If I could cradle you into my arms
I would cradle you tight in my arms
Always

So don't be scared of all the hurtful words
Cause in the end, they'll hurt themselves much more

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy(x16)

I won't leave you out of my will
But I will leave you out of my mind
For now

I won't be there to break your sweet heart
But not being there might break your sweet heart

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy (x4)

If I could cradle you into my arms
I would cradle you tight in my arms
Always

So don't be scared of all the hurtful words
Cause in the end, they'll hurt themselves much more

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy(x16)

So since i am here still living, I guess i will live on.
I could have died for love, but for living i was born
