"Why are you such a good friend to me?" I asked him. After all, he barely knows me. He doesn't know my middle name. He probably doesn't know if I have a middle name. He knows next to nothing about me. What on earth would prompt him to act like such a good friend to me?
"I follow Christ," he said. Plain and simple.
What an answer. What do you say to that? I mean, it makes sense, but...wow. What an incredible person he really is. I've always known that, but I'm experiencing it first hand now, I guess. What an inspiration. I've always tried to do the same - be a friend to anyone and everyone. It's hard, in a world like ours - in a society like ours. What an inspiration though.
I love my friends. All of them.
I love everyone who I've not yet had the pleasure of calling my friends, as well. I've just been given back the inspiration to treat them as such, again.
Thank you, my friend - my brother.
