Not sure where to post this...so I settled for here. Hubby read this in one of his soccer books *rolling eyes*, but for once, he found something interesting.

I think it serves as some great food for thought. There are a lot of classy people here.

Class

• Class oozes with confidence, never cockiness.
• Class has an element of pride without being proud.
• Class has nothing to do with status, position, or wealth. It bespeaks an aristocracy that has nothing to do with ancestry or accomplishments. Some wealthy “blue bloods” have no class, while individuals who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded with it.
• Class knows you need not extinguish another’s candle in order to let your own shine.
• Class does not need credit for getting the job done.
• Class is never self-seeking and always looks for ways to praise others.
• Class is void of excuses. It learns from failure and moves on.
• Class is doing unto others as you would have others do unto you.
• Class has a sense of humor and knows that laughing at oneself is essential for positive well-being. Laughter lubricates the machinery of human relations.
• Class cultivates good manners, recognizing them as a series of small, inconsequential sacrifices.
• Class is equally comfortable with nobility and the blue collar crowd.
• Class is authentic. It loathes duplicity.
• True class has no rivals. If you lack class, whatever else you have is inconsequential.
