Harry Potter means adventure, loyalty, dedication, and, most importantly, true love. Not only for myself, but for all the Harry Potter fans, we have spent so much of our lives following the boy who lived. I read the first book in 2000 as part of my fifth grade English class, and from that moment my life would never be the same. I continued to share my life and time with Harry throughout the years, although, after Sirius died at the end of Order of the Phoenix I took some time off and did not return to the series until college. However, while in college I was presented the opportunity to take a Harry Potter course, which I immediately jumped at. And it was in this course where I met my wife. We both love Harry incredibly, and I think this loyalty to one of literature's greatest heroes has helped our relationship prosper. We both got the same Harry Potter tattoo, the Dark Mark (cue gasp!), and have many more in mind for the future. I will be forever grateful to Harry Potter. Not only has he, Hermione, Ron, and the rest of the cast of characters entertained me and prospered my love for reading, but he ultimately helped me find the love of my life. And that is something I will never take for granted. I owe you one, J.K. Rowling, and I will never forget it.
