While this lovely paperweight could be appropriate any time of year for a myriad of reasons, I thought ThisNexter izzi’s insightful recommendation was even more appropriate as we all look forward to our new adventures in 2007.

Whether you use this to in fact hold down paper, or place it somewhere eye catching like your bedroom dresser or kitchen counter, “It’s never too late to start your life over” is a bold, forgiving statement that gives us all the freedom to pick ourselves off the ground and keep going.

Here’s wishing you all a great year!
