Classic

Class is something that some people never think about and others are so conscious of that it becomes an awkward way of life. I don't think you are necessarily born with class, nor do I believe you can buy it.

While certain styles of homes, cars and clothes can be a manifestation of a classy person, they are no guarantee.

Even though some educations, manners and achievements are traditionally associated with class, they are also no guarantee.

Real class is a way of perceiving the world and responding to it.

A person with class always manages to make things work out in some way. The hardest jobs are done willingly and without complaint. The fairness, or unfairness of having to deal with something is a moot point once the project is undertaken. The past is the past. The future is put in the best possible light and whatever occurs, does so with a minimum of fuss.

People are put at ease, made to feel at home, and dealt with quietly and calmly.

Class is simple good manners, good hospitality, coupled with a strong personality.

Class is always discernible.
