You don't need a reason to celebrate and come together with loved ones. If your new year resolution is to spend more quality time with your family, then here are some ideas to consider:

Host a themed party:

Bring the party spirit to your home by hosting a fun themed event. You could go with trendy themes like favorite movie characters or try something unique like a holiday movie night. Decorate the house, plan some activities, and serve some yummy treats to make it a memorable occasion.

Take a trip:

A change of scenery can be a great way to bond with your family and create lasting memories. Consider planning a trip to a nearby destination or even somewhere further afield. It could be a beach vacation, a mountain retreat, or a city break. Whatever your preference, make sure to include plenty of activities and downtime for everyone to relax and enjoy each other's company.

Get creative:

Encourage your family to tap into their creative side by planning crafts or a DIY project together. You could make decorations for your home, bake cookies, or even try your hand at painting or drawing. Not only will you be spending quality time together, but you'll also have something to show for it at the end.

Go out and about:

Enjoy the winter season by exploring your local community or nearby city. There will likely be plenty of markets, relaxing activities, and other events like winter carnivals or food festivals. Make a day of it by trying out new activities, local food, and drink.

Have a game night:

Gather the family for a game night at home. Bring out the board games, card games, or even some video games, and spend the evening laughing and having fun together. You could also make it a potluck and have everyone bring a dish to share.

Get active:

Encourage your family to stay active and healthy by planning a group workout or outdoor adventure. Go for a hike, hit the ski slopes, or even try a new sport or activity together. It's a great way to bond and have fun while staying healthy. Woodside Villas Kasauli will be your haven if you want to enjoy a relaxing holiday ensconced in the serenity of the hills. Their Estate 33 is a four-bedroom villa with a heated outdoor pool and fireplaces (both indoor and outdoor) that welcomes families with much-needed warmth in the cold hills.

Enjoy a movie marathon:

Snuggle up on the couch and have a movie marathon with your family. Choose a theme, like Disney movies or family comedies, and spend the evening laughing and enjoying each other's company. Remember the popcorn!

No matter how you spend quality time with your family this year, the most important thing is to be present and enjoy each other's company. Make an effort to remove distractions and connect with your loved ones. You can create lasting memories and strengthen your family bond with a bit of planning and creativity.

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.
