About Me

"Man can will nothing unless he has first understood that he must count no one but himself; that he is alone, abandoned on earth in the midst of his infinite responsibilities, without help, with no other aim than the one he sets himself, with no other destiny than the one he forges for himself on this earth." - Jean-Paul Sartre(french writer/existential philosopher)my name is chris johnston. Christopher Lane Johnston fully. Music has always been and is still becoming an even bigger part of my life. I play the guitar and attempt to vocalize. i plan to start a band pretty soon when the time is right. I'm probably the nicest guy youll ever meet. im never an asshole or anything....... ;-).

On Overcoming.
