Here lies Johnny Johnston. Of all his accomplishments in life, he was most proud of the one he completed seconds before his death. Learning what the inside of his own face looked like.
Free your body and soul
Unfold your powerful wings
Climb up the highest mountains
Kick your feet up in the air
You may now live forever
Or return to this earth
Unless you feel good where you are!
