Kabbalah Counseling for Madge and Guy

London, Ritchie/Ciccone Mansion, dinnertime. The family sits at the table.
RITCHIE: Rocco, tell your mum to pass the salt.
MADONNA: Lola, tell your father that we have an appointment to see Rabbi Berg today and he'd better be there.
ROCCO: I've had it with passing the salt to you two. I'm going to my wing.
LOLA: And I'll be in my wing. And PS, mom, I'm a Buddhist. So there.

END SCENE

A bit overdramatized (especially toward the end, I admit it), but so is a rendering of some of the notes from this report in a British tabloid that Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie are having problems and turning to their Kabbalah rabbi for personal counseling.

Speculation the couple's marriage is in trouble has been rife for years. Last week, Madonna's spokesmen denied internet rumors that divorce lawyers were getting involved. But friends say the couple are leading increasingly separate lives--they have different interests; keep separate bedrooms; and rarely support each other in public. Guy most recently failed to show up to the Berlin launch of her debut as a movie director in "Filth And Wisdom." Days later, he missed her big Oscars party and a New York fundraiser.

The source continues, "It really hurt Madonna that Guy failed to show up to these events. He just hasn't taken as much interest as he once did in what she's doing. Right now they've fallen out of love. Rav Berg's job is to help them decide if it's worth making a go of things."

There are too many headlines about Guy and Madonna's marriage for anyone to have the real word: too many anonymous sources, too many reps denying everything, etc. But with Kabbalah at the center of their relationship, perhaps their guru can help them work things out in a way that's best for the family.

As Fellow Human Beings we should all feel sad at the end of anyone's Marriage, Especially when Children are involved. I don't dwell on it but I say a short Prayer for God to Sustain them and do what he see's best. I also say a short prayer to survivor's for strength and comfort when I hear of a death on the News. Just because we do not know someone it should not lessen our ability to acknowledge anyones's pain. I wish all the World comfort at the times it need's it the most. I also wish the same for myself.

Madonna is a pitiful figure, having lived a life of rebellion against her family's Catholic faith, while using Catholic symbolism to help sell her music and videos. Obviously, her spirit cannot handle the
unrealistic ego-power she believes that she posesses and the natural thing has occurred; she's in a complete spiritual muddle !

She might start her rehabilitation with a massive divestiture of funds to the needy, allow her face to age as any other normal human being and
trade places with her servants on a regular basis. Perhaps there is still time for her to realize than no one can "have it all," that there is a price to pay for creating a ravenous ego and that she can easily be left a spiritual pauper in her remaining years.

I hate to see any marriage in trouble. I pray that they can get christian counselling, and make themselves right with God. I love them both, and look forward for a bright and wonderful future. God Bless them.
