I've learned....That life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.



I've learned....That we should be glad God doesn't give us everything we ask for.



I've learned....That money doesn't buy class.



I've learned....That it's those small daily happenings that make life so spectacular.



I've learned...That under everyone's hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved.



I've learned....That the Lord didn't do it all in one day�What makes me think I can?



I've learned....That to ignore the facts does not

change the facts.



I've learned.....That the less time I have to work, the more things I get done.

Money doesn't buy class? Psh I don't what universe you're from, but if you have wealth you're brought up much differently than the common middle class. The upper echelon tier has certain requirements to be around and act accordingly these are fundamental principles that are taught from the beginning of your life.

These very same things. Only, I forget, minimize, ignore, or rationalize them away most of the time.

Learning is not the hard part. It is remembering and making the conscious choice not to let it happen to you again. sad2 slaphead frustrated tears tears

I have learned just because I believe does not make it so.

I have learned crying is not a show of weakness.

I have learned a smile is contagious, pass it on.

So I conferred with the dictionary just to be sure that I wasn't mistaking the word for what I assumed it was. After reading the term in the dictionary I stand by exactly what I said.

It isn't suitable in my family not to be dressed up in proper attire at all times while being around my family. There is no sweatpants, there is no sweaters or cheap jackets. It's a suit and tie plus the jacket for all men worn with leather shoes not sneakers. This goes for dinner, breakfast, lunch, sitting in their home. When you sit your back shall be erect not slouching. When you eat you shall eat with the proper utensils, you will not slurp, no elbows are ever to be on the table, etc.

Suit and tie is a must look at the picture in my profile, I was getting ready to be with my family.

If you have ever watched the movie A League of their own, the girls who go trough the training to become baseball stars in the league had to sit through classes to be taught how to act around the upper echelon of society.

The only time it is acceptable to be in casual wear is if you're going to a public place like a zoo, or an amusement park. Everything else is always formal attire.

I'd go on but clearly you either didn't understand what I meant or you didn't grow up the way I did. My family isn't a typical American family. They belong to a higher class of people than a typical American. I consider myself a typical American with the background of a family in the upper tier.

Class is not just about table manners and what you wear. It it also about gentility, humility, benevolence, kindness, compassion, and most of all, doing the right thing.
