Unlike most I don't follow football or have any empathy for it however the apparent suicide of Robert Enke should be a matter of huge regret to everyone. Unfortunately however, I believe there's a growing dis-ease, across a wide spectrum of society, which can be attributed in many instances, to wealth and associated materialism, which does not necessarily nurture the soul. A new car, new television or exotic holiday might feel empowering and give you a lift for a short time however, ultimately, you have to live with yourself and be honest about your aspirations.

His poor wife... It's true, we never know what's going on in the lives of celebs -we only see the made up, the exaggerated, the sensationalist and the mistakes they've apparently made. The public makes a value judgement on what's perpetuated in the tabloids and project their hatred or adoration based on the persona, not realising that often their emotion may have little basis on the PERSON. It's the old adage - money really can't buy happiness. It’s also devastating as they lost their 2 year old daughter a couple of years ago. His poor wife…
