there is this guy who kept hounding to lend him a few particular books that i owned
they were really important to him because he was in dire need of knowing this information for what he needed to do

it took me a while to look for all the books plus he wanted some other manuscripts that related to it and I had to look in my files for them too

i couldn't help but ADMIRING the HECK out of him for his persistence

i didn't even feel the slightest bit annoyed by all his e mails and phone calls about this or that book or booklet or manuscript etc. etc.

even though they were quite profuse

all i could think of was

"MANN! this guy has some courage and persistence!"

cuz, its not easy to ask people for something even if i was just loaning it to him

and he was so respectful about it and thanked me just as profusely ( though I didn't need him to thank me so many times)

i think people who ask for things have GUTS!! and i admire them

they risk being rejected

but they do it anyways

so... anyhow... just thought i'd get that out of my system

to be quite honest, i don't really like this guy but i do admire the fact that he is very bold and goes after what he wants .... ( books in this case LOLL
