Five Gift Ideas To Get Your Loved Ones For The Holidays
Craig Greenwood

With the holiday season coming up, I bet you are freaking out about what to get your parents, grandparents or your loved ones for the upcoming holidays. No fear, we are here to give you some ideas about what to get your loved ones for the upcoming holidays.

1. Holiday Gift Basket

You can make a holiday gift basket yourself and fill it with whatever things that your loved ones like. In the basket that I am making for one of my grandmas, I am putting the coconut bar soap that she likes into her gift basket as well as orthopedic slippers since she always has aches in her feet. The key to this gift basket is to make it personalized so that your loved one will like at least one of the items that you put into it.

2. A Diffuser and Essential Oils

Everyone loves nice smelling things so why not get your loved one a diffuser! Also, in the case that your loved ones have a diffuser already, you can get some new essential oils that they haven't tried out yet or just get them the ones they like so they can re-stock their supply.

3. Photo Prints

Whether you print a photo just to frame it or get a framed canvas print, you can never go wrong with getting nice photos framed! You can do this at Walmart or Walgreens.

4. Nespresso Or Keurig Machine

Your loved one probably likes coffee and/or tea so maybe look into buying a Nespresso/Keurig machine. If your loved one has a machine already, you could pick and choose some flavors or get the additional accessories for the machine.

5. Handmade or Artisan Goods.

Handmade items are great during the holidays, because you are putting in the time and effort to make an item yourself and you can customize it to your loved ones liking. You could try knitting a blanket or creating a painting for your loved ones. There are endless possibilities with handmade goods. Also, if you don't have any DIY inspiration or artistic abilities, you can get an item made especially for your loved one through Etsy or Amazon.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
