Stephenson Family Ties

"I read because one life isn't enough,

and in the page of a book I can be anybody;

I read because the words that build the

story become mine, to build my life;

I read not for happy endings but for new beginnings;

I'm just beginning myself, and I wouldn't mind a map;

I read because I have friends who don't, and young

though they are, they're beginning to run out of material;

I read because every journey begins at the library,

and it's time for me to start packing;

I read because one of these days I'm going to get

out of this town, and I'm going to go everywhere

and meet everybody, and I want to be ready."
