How To Help Your Community Easily, and FREE This Christmas Season(Blogmas 2016 Day 11)

     As I wrote in yesterday's post, during Christmastime everybody should be doing their best to be joyful, and spread positive energy through the world. There are many things you can do to do good for the world this Christmas season, and year round. So here are a few:

1. Volunteer At A Soup Kitchen/Church, I love this idea because you get to interact with people and spread your positive energy. You get to help people who are less fortunate get food that they need to survive, and it will warm your heart!

2. Send Anonymous Christmas Cards To Strangers, make a bunch of really sweet and heartfelt cards, and put them in random people's mailboxes. I know it sounds weird,but just think of how you would feel if you received a really sweet and touching card and you didn't know who wrote it!

3. Volunteer At A Canned Food Drive/Homeless Shelter, Another volunteering one, but I have volunteered at both of these things before and it helps the people who run these places, and it brightens people day. You can bring food to people at homeless shelters and play games with the kids.

4. Donate To The Church/Toys For Tots This is such a nice idea because both of these things are important to your community! It is nice to know that you are going to make somebody smile when you do this! Whether it is a kid or a whole family you can make somebody's day and even more than a day!

5. Visit An Elderly Home I have done this as well and it is so fun! You get to brighten up peoples day, and you can bake them cookies! All you have to do is talk to the people there and it makes their day! I recommend doing this and all of these things!

Just because it's Christmas season does not mean that you cannot do these things at other points in the year! People need all of these things all times of the year not just during this season so make sure you do all of these things year round! Go out there and make somebody's day today!

Dual Action Moisturizer (Which is better? On Brand Or OffBrand? #2)(Blogmas 2016 #4)

      A post that I am very proud of, and that many of you wonderful readers really seemed to enjoy, was my Which Is Better? On Brand, or Off Brand Beauty Blender Edition . I decided to make it a little series because I realize that I love a good dupe, and I want you to join in my journey to great dupes! So welcome to another On-Brand or Off-Brand post!        I think every person can agree that moisturizer is something that is a necessity in a skincare routine, especially in this upcoming winter season! I know in the winter I get very dry skin, and I know that moisturizer can get quite expensive, so I thought I would try out a store brand moisturizer, and compare it to a Clean and Clear moisturizer that I already knew I loved.      These are the two moisturizers that I will be comparing in this post! The clean and clear advantage dual action moisturizer (I know this one is slightly different but I have used both!), and the Walmart...

Life Is Happening RIGHT NOW

           One thing that I have really discovered about myself within the past year is that I am way too focused on the future. I often find myself planning my future down to the last detail, and daydreaming.               But let me tell you something. This does not get you anywhere. I realized that I was legitimately spending my life just thinking about a life I dreamed of and planning my future in my mind. However, I soon came to realize that life is happening right now. I am living a wonderful, beautiful, and amazing life now, and if I keep daydreaming excessively I will be living more in my fantasy than in my reality. Though this may sound great, reality is truly wonderful.                I soon began to realize, 'oh dang, I must stop daydreaming'. So that is what I did. I prayed, and I worked hard to stop my daydreaming tendencies. Now I have severely cut down the amount of t...

How I Have Deepened My Faith

            A few months ago God truly found me. I knew I wanted to start a relationship with God and with Jesus,but I did not how to begin this faithful journey in my life. However, here I am a few months later and I feel more spiritual than ever. I know I still have a lot to learn,but you always do when it comes to Christ. Here are my tips for starting a relationship with Christ. 1. Pray This is so simple ,but so true. I pray so much. I pray every morning when I wake up to thank God for a safe night. I pray when I am aware I have sinned. I pray before I, or my family eats. I pray before I go to bed. I pray a lot in between. Praying does not have to be a set prayer, you can legitimately just talk to God. It takes a little bit of getting used to, but you get the hang of it as you practice. Remember God knows that you are new to this, and he knows that you are trying and he will help you to learn to pray better. Remember, do not just pray for things, pr...
