If you could describe a Taoist in two sentences or less, how would you say it?

I'm done counting sentences. Nobody is playing by the rules. (I don't believe all of us here are Anarchists. Hehehe.)

I am wondering what really makes a Taoist, and I would like a simple explanation if it can be simple.
