Harry Potter; the Boy Who Lived; the Chosen One; the series which was my childhood; the series which taught me about life, love, loyalty, happiness, and friendship. The Harry Potter series was my comfort in times of pain and my escape in times or sorrow. The increasing darkness of the books only made it more real to me, which in turn made love more real to me. I understand much more than I ever would have had I not read the books, and I daren’t think where I would be today if I hadn’t had them as an escape and comfort. The Harry Potter series is not just a series, but a world. A world where goodness triumphs even if only just. The world is magical and not only in the sense that it’s magic. It’s enchanting. This world helped me understand emotions in a brand new way. This world gave me insight into our world. They say the era has ended, But it will live on. It will only truly be over when none are loyal to Harry Potter. I am positive this story will live in me, in most of us, forever. And as a wonderfully wise woman once said: “Whether you come back by page or by the big screen, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.”
