"If all of the attributes that go toward fashioning an enchanting woman were hung like necklaces in a jeweler's window, which would you choose?

Poise?

Say you would.  It stands for so much!

A Poised Woman has grace, charm, deep beauty, mystery, and she is enchanting.  She "goes places and does things" for her mind is open to recognize and grasp opportunity.  People admire her.  She is a success in her social life - and in a profession or business.  She is that envied woman - you knw her - who can come to a formal ball in an old tweed suit and make you, in your glittering evening gown, the dowdy one.  She seems always "smart."  Why?  Because of all of the things to be listed below.  Mainly because she feels the big things in life and the little ones only amuse her.

Given the choice of only one Fairy Godmother Gift - choose Poise!  It just about takes care of every situation in like; it includes so much."

From 'How to be the Smart Woman,' by Rebecca.  Okay, okay, I choose Poise.  Because I don't want to be the dowdy one anymore!
