CHAPTER THREE: UPSIDE DOWN SONG: UPSIDE DOWN - JACK JOHNSON We're at peace. It's 2017. And I'm in the Azzuza Mountains in California Gosh.. its beautiful The most beautiful place ive ever seen in my life Me and Christopher are going around these mountains. And there's no rail on the side. But man, it's so free. The air is like light and it feels like a dream. I look down. A small ladybug with only a few dots is on the strap of my seatbelt. The sound of Callin' Baton Rouge rings in the background by Garth Brooks. Another loop around. I've never really been comfortable in vehicles— a total nine before this event. But for a second I forgot. And then we were upside down. I don't know how it happened. I don't really remember flipping. All I know is if we didn't flip the way that we did we would have fallen a thousand feet down. We had no phone service. We were just hanging upside down alive. He looks at me, I'm so sorry, he helps me out. Immediately he took accountability before seeing if he was OK he checked on me thank you. We’re just sitting there hanging upside down perfectly before we get out it’s wild. I wonder where the ladybug went. Somebody comes driving by. So close. So close to the edge The comfort of christopher afterwards, his mother, life … almost stopped .. again.. as soon as i began to relax - as . Soon. As. I. Fucking. Relaxed.
