What does Harry Potter mean to me? Harry Potter means that there is magic in this world. Maybe not always the fantastic magic of waving a wand around or flying on broomsticks, but the magic of imagination and friendship. The magic that shows what happens when one person shares an idea with another and it spreads like an uncontrolable fiendfire that burns in the hearts and minds of thousands and more each day. A fire that can't be doused by the strongest of Aguamenti spells, and through the amazement that Harry Potter is has turn many into its horcuxes. And there are so many that Harry Potter has not a chance of being destroyed. Harry Potter has sparked so many things in it's honor. Movies, art, an entire genre of music and even a musical or two! The question has become, What can't Harry Potter do? Harry Potter teaches those who read it about mythology and can even be found on sparknotes. Harry Potter has become a way of life for many. For many who find anything slightly relating to Harry Potter in their life and have it brighten their day and then post it on AverageWizard. Many have died through out the series to give a better life to the witches and wizards of today. And we all cried alon if and when our favorite character was killed. It was like losing a friend. Harry Potter gives many a place to belong. A place for all the out of placed Nevilles, the strange and diffrent Luna's the extremely smart Hermione's. A place for everyone to band together like what had to be done in the story. To let go of diffrences and find that one common thing can unite many. This is why I have been using we instead of I for the majority of my post. Because Harry Potter has shown that it is not always I many times it's we, it's us. Even if you're Harry Potter, The chosen one, The Boy who Lived, you're still going to need your Ron to help you play giant wizarding chess, your Hermione to figure out how to figure out the potion puzzle, your Neville to cut heads off of evil snakes your Ginny to stand by your side and your Luna to inform you that you aren't crazy and she can see the threstals too. Harry Potter is more then a story it embodies everything that true magic is in this world. Many have died to bring us this magic that we hold today, It is as Lupin said. "...but he will know why I died and I hope he will understand I was trying to make a world in which he could live a happier life." I was saddened to no end by the end of the series. But, then I remembered this means I get to start over. This is what Harry Potter means to me. Happiness.
