I really did like your post. One more comment on this. As many of us reach the age where our friends and associates are starting to drop over dead more frequently... the distribution definitely does not always match the "doing the right thing gets you results" expectation. Sometimes it does and sometimes it does not. Often heredity, luck, stubbornness, and other qualities that are not well understood have a greater amount of influence on life span.
You are right. It is not a just world but we can try. LOL
