My Wife, My Counselor

Of course we all know that husbands and wives should always counsel together in all things but, for me, there has never been any question as to whom I will go to discuss both the woes and joys of life. The wonderful thing about Rachelle is that she never makes me feel inadequate or foolish no matter how ridiculous my complaint may be. She does a much better job of counseling with me than I do counseling with her. As most typical males tend to do, I often am thinking of solutions for the problem being described rather than listening intently to more fully understand the problem.

My wife is not only my counselor but she counsels with many others as well. She is always willing to bear another’s burdens and listen empathetically as they vent their frustrations. She is very compassionate of others and their plight. She will frequently forgo her own (infrequent) free time to talk to someone (whether online, or in person). She naturally possesses the qualities that many of us have to strive to obtain. Of my wife and counselor I can only say...I am blessed everyday to have her as a part of me and a part of my life.
