Harry Potter for me, means so much more than I think a lot of the world can imagine. I'm 18, so I grew up with Harry Potter. I feel blessed to live in the time that this world began. I've been to every midnight release of every book and movie since I was 12. On Thursday night, I'll be going for the last time..to Deathly Hallows Part 2. For me, this is a very emotional week because it truly marks the end of an era of sorts. I know Harry Potter will live on past all of this, and that my love for it will never be less strong, but this will be the last time I stand in a line for hours upon hours to be there for the moment when a new HP book or movie releases. (Unless JK gets hit with an unavoidable urge to write about this world once more..my fingers are certainly crossed.) A few months ago, I redecorated my bedroom specifically so that five framed Deathly Hallows posters would look exceptional in there. Right now I've ordered two more of those posters, and they're currently on their way to my house...Harry Potter for me is the world I want to live in(and often do in dreams). But it signifies so much more than that. It's an extraordinary tale of one small boy who made a big difference. A boy who stood up against something far more powerful and terrifying than himself. And not because he had to..because he WANTED to. And he made a difference. He lost so much along the way, but it never stopped him. And for that, Harry Potter will live on.
