Is fortune an equalizer?


One often wonders about one's own status. Some of us breeze through life and die in our sleep in our 90's whereas others are stricken early in life and suffer pain, discomfort, and a depleted bank account. I suppose this is the randomness of life...the good, the bad, the ugly.

Annette Funicello is an excellent example of the vicissitudes of life. Here is a clip from the Mickey Mouse Club exemplifying Annette's dancing and now in her 60's, Annette is coping with multiple sclerosis. I guess most of us suffer.
