Myabetic. Pretty much anything from this website is ideal. They have cases for a variety of your diabetes needs, cooling pouches for those of us on injections so we can keep our insulin cool, T-shirts, Dexcom accessories, and Tandem accessories. I have the Banting wallet in purple (which I absolutely love) and the Marie Diabetes mini Crossbody in black which is basically a wallet and the Banting combined for the perfect night-out purse.

Prikkedief. This is a company based in the Netherlands, but their diabetes supplies are seriously to die for. They have clutches (which are basically the same as Myabetic’s clutches) and wallets, jewelry, pump and sensor covers, clothes, and posters! I recently ordered the Medtronic 630G gold sparkle pump cover and I cannot wait until it comes in the mail! If it's not in English at first, go down to the very bottom of the website to choose the right language.

Etsy. This website is my go-to for anything crafty, but I had no idea they had so many awesome diabetes accessories! I just ordered this super cute thigh band for my pump, and I am hoping to get this running belt as well (I mean, I don’t run, but if I ever want to run with my pump and some glucose tabs, I can). They have jewelry, clothes, bags, journals, stickers, pins, and so, so much more. All you do is search “diabetes,” “type one diabetes,” or “diabetic accessories” and you’ll get hundreds of hits on super cute, fashionable, and handmade items that any diabetic will no doubt love.

Lauren’s Hope. This company has medical ID jewelry that is just the absolute cutest. They have jewelry for men, women, and kids, and they have so many different styles suited for all kinds of different activities. Seriously, just shop around on this website for a bit and fill up that shopping cart because not only will these cute little accessories save your outfit, but they’ll save your life, too.

Journals. We all know how constantly busy and hectic a diabetic’s life is, so spoil them with a nice planner to keep them up to date with appointments and to help them get on a schedule to reduce the stress in their life. This website has some fantastic ideas for planners for all sorts of people, depending on their preferences. Personally, this one is a total dream for me, and the fact that I can choose which size and how the pages look is a big plus for me.

Pretty much anything cute and stylish, yet also functional, will be much appreciated from the diabetic in your life. Go on and impress them with your thoughtfulness!

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.

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.
