Couldn't really say, it'd have to be a two person confirmation. Anyone I meet and actually proves themselves a decent human being earns a small space in my mind for which prayers I make go out to. These people fall under my protection in any way I can give it to them. In this way I try and honor the kindness they have shown me. For one who has not known much kindness in his life... willing to die for one who shows it is not such a leap as you would think. But usually I do not know if these feelings are returned, what is an everlasting corner of my mind can only be a past memory to others. While I may consider you on high, above the filth who so often fumble in teh dark around me, you may only consider me a distant-if warm-voice that sometimesyou enjoy listening to.

So really it depends on what you consider a friend. After all we do not talk much, have not chatted live to each other, we do not know each other, and you can not come over to my house and hang out -or vise versa- and we can't lend each other stuff, or complain to each other. At the most it could be considered a internet Aquiantance.

What you make of that is up to you.

But in my eyes, you are a decent person, and one i pray for, and would protect with my life. As always people can give and recieve nothing in return, but that does not mean they are not glad to give it. I consider you someone special, but would that make you a friend?
