To me, Harry Potter is a lifestyle. It's more than just a story, it teaches valuable lessons. Harry taught me to always stand up for yourself, as well as your friends, and to be selfless. Ron taught me to always come back to your true friends, no matter what, and to stick by them. Hermione taught me it's okay to show your intelligence, and it doesn't matter if your friends are boys. Neville taught me there's a hero in all of us, no matter how strong or weak we are. Luna taught me to be yourself, regardless of what others think. Dumbledore taught me that what might be not important to others, is whats most important in anothers eyes; While someone might not believe in what you believe, that does not mean it isn't real. Snape taught me to do anything for the ones you love. My life has changed ever since I found the Boy Who Lived and his friends. Harry Potter is the one story I will carry with me the rest of my life. Thank you JK Rowling, for giving us this truly magical gift. It will DEFINITELY never end in our hearts!
