Harry Potter is everything. Not in the "my room is covered in it" way. Though, it sort of is. But it's my childhood, my happiness, my sadness, my anxiety, my life lessons. It will be my adulthood, as well. Everything. Not only has Harry Potter brought joy and entertainment to my childhood, but it has also brought great sadness. Losing characters I held dear to my heart, and the overall end of the series. Both with the books and the movies. Waiting in line for midnight releases of movies and books has made lifelong friends for me, people I can relate to and smile with. It's also taught me life lessons. It's taught me not to judge a book by it's cover (no pun intended). Just because people may not have the nicest things, or be the 'prettiest' on the outside, it doesn't mean that they aren't wonderful people. It's also taught me that death is an impossible and unpredictable event to avoid, no matter how powerful you are. But that you should still strive to survive. Harry Potter (both the books and movies) was there when no one else was. I watch it at my saddest of times to boost my mood. It keeps me company when I'm lonely. Through it all, Harry Potter has ALWAYS been a loyal companion. Harry Potter is everything.
