The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Down To Earth

My legacy as a person is I want people to say I was real down to earth.
A rare breed, a true one of a kind.

I want to be the exception to  humanity
The opposite of ego and vanity
I want to be that person who you feel at ease with.

I want my character traits to resemble Christ:
Someone who was kind, loyal, trustworthy,  disciplined, respectful, humble, and honest.

The person you can sit and vent to, the person who will give you money when you're in need, a person who will go out of his way to make sure you are ok.
That's the kind of person I want to be remembered for.
