(Non)traditional Buddhist readathon blessing:
Just as the books fill the shelves, Pile together on the floor and stack up on the table So may the joy of the readathon Flow forth to brighten your day and lift your spirit. Books already read, books in progress and books yet to be read.
By the power of every word on the page May your book be delightful, As scary as Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Or as sweet as a box of See’s candy.
Let the power of the images evoked by words Keep you stay awake long through the night May no obstacle impede Your day filled with books.
For all of those who are reading today Who follow in the path of Dewey May your day be filled with the four blessings Of fabulous books, tasty snacks, comfy chairs and joy.
So I picked up a book on my own from the shelf and I started to read on my own to myself. And nonsense and knowledge come tumbling out, whispering mysteries, history’s shout, the wisdom of wizards, the songs od the ages, all the wonders of wandering wonderful pages. ~Karla Kuskin

Wow, off to an excellent start!
Keep on reading, and I'll keep on cheering! :)
*this hearty cheer/praise/pick-me-up is brought to you in part from Team Metaphor and the letter R.
