#362/365--Harry Potter Marathon

There are many ideas
in this series
that ring true with me...

1st:  Don't judge a book by its cover
(at first glance, you'd think this book
is simply 
wizards, witches, and magic
...it's not...
...at all...)

2nd:  True friends will go anywhere
and
do anything for you

3rd:  Expecto Patronum
Latin for
"I await a protector..."
...and...
truth be told
...I do...

4th:  My dad is alive in me
and
those we love
never truly leave us
Dumbledore to Harry:
"You think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? 
You think that we don't recall them more clearly 
than ever in times of great trouble?  
Your father is alive in you, Harry, 
and shows himself plainly 
when you have need of him."

5th:  Even when things are going wrong,
you can still find the good
Again, Dumbledore to Harry:
"Happiness can be found, 
even in the darkest of times, 
if one only remembers to turn on the light."

6th:  Good always wins.  Always. 
Even when It seems to have lost.

7th:  It's good to eat a big meal
before a Quidditch Match

8th:  Integrity
Again.
Dumbledore to Harry:
"It is our choices that show what we truly are,
far more than our abilities."

9th:  It is better to disarm someone 
than to cast an Unforgivable Curse

10th:  People are not who you think they are
and looks can be deceiving


This is
my favorite
...series of books...
...ever...
and
I love it
when
it is
"Harry Potter Maration"
...weekend...
