I am 43 and an associate pastor for my church. I like cooking, nature, fishing and hunting. I am willing to listen and engage with you. Life is a journey and we all suffer pitfalls along the way. Sometimes having a listening ear is all one needs to get by. I too have benefited from having compassionate individuals listen to my frustrations hopes, fears or expectations that seem to get lost in everyday life. I will be honest and kind about letting you know if I do not feel that I am qualified to be the listener you need. If that is the case, it would be much better to have someone qualified listen to you than one that is not. Other than that, I am willing to hear what you need to say and I will attempt to engage with you or just be a sympathetic ear in order to aid you on the path to discovering self actualization and a realization toward fulfillment of a peaceful and tranquil existence in this ever increasing chaotic world.
