Stockings always play a role in gift-giving, but oftentimes they're a throw-together-at-the-last-minute kind of thing.

Here are some good stocking stuffers that'll make anyone in the family happy.

1. Portable Charger

 

Portable chargers are a necessity currently. You can get something basic and sleek or go for a more fun design, but any charger will do the job. They're small and perfect for the bottom of the stocking!

2. Mini Emergency Kit

You ever know when you're going to be in an emergency, which is why one of these little kits is perfect for the holiday season. You can put one of these in a backpack, purse, or car and have it anywhere just in case something dangerous happens.

3. Gift Cards

Gift cards are the go-to for Christmas shopping. If you don't know what someone likes, you can get them a Visa pre-paid card and allow them to spend it anywhere! Or, you can go for somewhere like Target where anyone can find something they enjoy!

4. Metal Straws

Reusable or metal straws are a really good idea! You can take them with you anywhere and they make saving the environment quick and easy.

5. Hygiene Items

All hygiene-related objects are super useful and not too expensive. You can get someone a razor, a hairbrush, or toothpaste and you can rest assured they'll all be helpful down the line somewhere. You can also go a step further and get face masks or bath bombs.

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.
