In the Wheel of Fortune everything keeps repeating itself, spinning inexorably with relentless precision. We are born helpless, we grow up quickly, and we travel through our days confident we can control our fate. Only as we get older, do we realize that we have come back to the beginning of our lives, helpless once again. This time it is our children who will grow up and repeat the cycle, until they too die and sink into oblivion, prisoners of Fortuna's wheel.
