Instagram - The Soul's Window to this Temporary Reality

40->41 Reflections.... Positive notes....1st off...penis still works like a charm...mother got to meet my son (1st time since his birth)...my daughters are smart, healthy and tomboyish...95 year old grandma still alive and driving..."family" back home is doing well...new additons/births...some homies came home...wife finally got her physical store...i got a new car...finished community service...a new website (still under construction)...product line (in final stages of development)...met and secured friendships in the wine and spirits industry... Fallbacks...some family and friends passed away (Brother, Gail, A.Byrd), missed funerals and special moments...was passed over for opening a franchise...didnt hit my wset completion goal...ongoing court issues...got a bit fatter...havent been investing in bottles...and it's all good.. Negative and positive...yin/yang...one + other = appreciation and understanding of the universal balance...i am truly the last of a dying breed...and thankful for being able to have lived this long....not just over the hill, I've conquered it...better ask somebody #birthday #reflection #yinyang #balance #41 #overthehill #wine #spirits #alcohol #appreciation #themarathoncontinues
Birthday evening selection..Rum, Whisky, Cognac...not the highest level in my current collection, but each has some implicit intrinsic value... #Rum - brought from its native land by a man I have come to learn alot from. #Whisky - purchased on hint that it would go up in price and value over the next few years (back then) #Cognac - bought by my wife 5.5 years ago, showing support by buying my first "expensive" bottle It's been 30 years of knowing/seeing people I cared about pass away from non natural circumstances...at 41, I know I've lived a full life and am grateful for the experience no matter what the end brings #Friday #september #20 #rum #whisky #cognac #xo #kingblockdean #boozehoochandpotcenter #klarkkent #birthday #wsetspirits #wsetdiploma
Assimilation - those that are risk adverse, thriving within a squared society... Concentration - those that wish to produce intense complexity operating undeterred by squares... Are you packaged and displayed accordingly? #Taiwan #scotch #island #drinks #drank #alcohol #standout #thursday #喝酒 #生日快樂 #九月 #kingblockdean #boozehoochandpotcenter #wsetspirits #wsetdiploma
A style of its own...raw material that has been refined like not too many of its peers, slowly aged to represent its roots in a distinct manner...the risk to reward ratio is costly...but ive learned to trust the process....a rare breed in the industry #rhum #rum #diplomatico #island #taiwan #台灣 #喝酒 #生活 #alcohol #study #wsetspirits #wsetdiploma #boozehoochandpotcenter #goals #kingblockdean
Red...passion, anger, love, blood... Captured the photo but got captivated by conversation before encapsulating the essence in my glass... The Madeira style of wine, my preference...with the dark expression of alcohol, my essence... encased in a red djin bottle - my spirit #losangeles #taiwan #中壢 #葡萄酒 #台灣 #whisky #scotch #alcohol #pourdecisons #kingblockdean #boozehoochandpotcenter #wsetspirits #wsetdiploma #wset #aboutthatlife
My umbilical cord...the unsafest spots are where Ive felt most secure and comforted...10 years before this 1988 bottle was released, I was born...1 year after 1991' bottle was released, I watched the city burn from my window...1st on the news, then counting the streets, next the blocks and finally the stores just in front of our apartments as the looting approached... At 28, I was able to get away, but there is a longheld myth that "away" implies out...an illusion created by distance when actions in the streets at 41, can pull you back to a place emotionally, it becomes apparent and are components in a continuous generational curse...RIP young king, may the old keep the youth safe on the homefront....WS-STL158-Js->Bty
