To me, Harry Potter means quite literally everything. They have made me the person I am today, so for me, Harry Potter means being myself. The books have taught me the immeasurable value of love, loyalty, friendship, and innocent. They have taught me to be selfless and to always put the people I love first. Harry Potter means not being alone. No matter who you are, no matter how powerless you feel, there is always someone out there that cares, and that will be your friend. With Harry Potter, there is no such thing as an underdog, because the underdog always has at least a shining moment. Harry Potter means confidence to me because without it, I'd still be a quiet, mousy, picked-on kid who isn't certain of anything he does. To me, Harry Potter means learning, and not just about magic and mythical creatures. No, Harry Potter means learning about LIFE. Learning how to be a good person, how to do right, how to care, how to have friends, and how to cherish what and who you have in your life. Harry Potter means embracing adventure, saying "To hell with adversity!" and always doing what is RIGHT, and not what is easy or less-scary. But above all other things, Harry Potter means love and a brotherhood with your fellow man. Harry Potter brings people together because if you love Harry Potter, then you know what true love is, and know that anyone else who feels this way is a brother or sister enough in that one simple sense.
