Sobriety

Sobriety never runs scared.  It is surefooted and confident. It can handle whatever comes along.
Sobriety has a sense of humor.  It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations.
Sobriety never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from mistakes.
Sobriety knows that good manners are nothing more than a series of petty sacrifices.
Sobriety bespeaks a class of people that have nothing to do with money.  Some extremely wealthy people have no sobriety while others who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded with it,
Sobriety is real.  You can't fake it.
The person with sobriety makes everyone feel comfortable because he is comfortable within himself.
If you have sobriety, you've got it made. If you don't have sobriety - no mater what else you have - it doesn't make any difference.
(Unknown - I found this on a card in a bookstore and do not know to whom it should be attributed, but I love it.)
