If a person were to truly answer this question it would take days, to sit here and answer this question. Especially when a person thinks about what Potter has done for them in all the aspects of their lives. For me Harry Potter has given me some of the greatest friends I will ever have. I have gone to England, been to four of the movie premieres, met two of the actors, met amazing Potter people, who also tell their own stories of what Harry James Potter has done for them. Harry is a person who had everything taken from him in a early age and did not let it get him down,to much, he went to Hogwarts and made his TWO best friends. Now you are probably wondering why I capitalized the word two, its because yes he has plenty of other friends but his very best friends the ones that are there through death, love, humor, studies and adventures are those TWO. Which I think is why I really have my TWO best friends. We do everything Harry,Ron and Hermione do. We study for exams, we deal with loss, we talk about our latest crushes, we take trips together to other countries. We know that no matter what happens we will have each others back. I think out of all the characters I am most like Harry. We have both dealt with a lot of drama in our lives. And i even have my own Voldemort to contend with in my own life, but because of Harry I know I can defeat him and live a happy life. Harry Potter means to me that no matter who you are, no matter how much money you have, what you look like, what your interests are you will always have those TWO best friends to help you get through it. Harry Potter for a long time was the only good thing I had in my life. He was my best friend, because I guess I was the Neville of my middle school, because I wasn't the smartest person, i wasn't the prettiest and I wasn't the best at sports so I just stayed in the shadows. That is until I picked up the Harry Potter books and they gave me the courage I needed in order to face my versions on the death eaters and the Malfoys of my school. And after seven years in one school,( It was like my Hogwarts) I found my place. One of my friends is definitely the Hermione of the group she is very smart. the other friend is the one who is very loyal and you know will always be and will be able to put a smile on your face.Then there's me, the Harry of our group. I'm the one gives ideas of things to do, the one who is always up to something and who is always, even though you may not be able to tell, is on the outside looking in. I'm the one they go to to talk to and they one they know they can lean on. In closing the sires may be over but the lessons that have been given through Harry,Ron and Hermione will live on through generations to come. I know they will because when i become a teacher I am going to have my students read these books, and answer a question much like this and I will be able to tell who the future Harry, Ron and Hermiones are. There might be no more movie or books but the love and courage and magic of Harry James Potter will live on. "He will never be gone not as long as though those who remain are loyal to him" Harry might of been talking about Albus Dumbledore, but I believe it can be made to be said about Harry to. And its like J.K. Rowling has said it might be over but Hogwarts will always be there for anyone who wants or needs it.
