She is just a girl and she loves blindly and recklessly, even if it consumes her.

Love Is Something Lived Through: The Bible
I have been asked by many friends where "Love Is Something Lived" came from. Well here is your answer.
I received a Bible from a really good friend of mine before he moved away (Mic). I was flipping through it one night just to read everything he had written in it. Then I saw it in the margins: Love is something lived, and ever since it has just stuck with me.
God has called us to love. Love Him and love others. It is the greatest commandments that he gives us. Matthew 22:37-39
Jesus replied:'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
Jesus didn't always just tell people He loved them, in fact what we hear most about is Jesus SHOWING His love to His people. By performing miracles and dieing on the cross, Jesus showed how deep his love runs for us.
God calls us to get out and live so while we live, we should live with love abounding from us. People can see when you are a loving person, it just radiates off of you, but to not put all that love to use makes it worthless in my eyes.
Reach out and touch someones life with a little bit of love. It won't only change their life, but yours as well.
