This is a gift from my mother, and is just the greatest thing! It's a glass jar full of bits of wisdom that she wrote herself from all different sources and folded into small origami stars. She even decorated the jar up and put on a little metal tool for opening the stars. I love it and so do most of my co-workers, and has become known as "your mother's wisdom". It looks about like a jar of candy sitting so pretty on my desk. I've shared some fortunes with my friends as there's enough to last almost a year she said. Today's was "forgive eveyone everything" A hard one but I'll actually give it a shot, (which was really hard after my neighbor, a large young man, kept shoveling his walk 5 feet from me the whole time I was stuck in my driveway before work and had to go get my 15 year old to help push me out. My neighbor never once said a word or offered to help us. I'm normally pretty forgiving but that was pushing my limits. Anyway... according to my co-workers I need to heed my "mother's wisdom" so I'll try.)
