    all the joys‚ which we were denied on earth‚ will open wide to welcome us to eternal happiness. The Hindus want us to perform our duties without attachment and without any expectation‚ and one day we will be released from the bondage of worldly life.

    The Joy of Reading‚ or‚ What Reading Really Means to Me When I was first asked to make this short speech‚ I was struck by the title “What Reading Means to Me.” My knee-jerk reaction was “What doesn’t reading mean to me?” As a professional librarian‚ I thought of all of our standard platitudes: “Reading is Life.” “Reading is Fundamental.” “There is no such thing as too many books.” I might easily have gone on and on along this vein‚ until I remembered that‚ for me
