Thank you: A note about the Harry Potter series and why we love it

The Harry Potter series means a lot to us. We wouldn’t still want to talk about it if it didn’t. So this is a thank you to the series that made us who we are today.

My dear Harry Potter, thank you. Your world has given us something amazing to cling to. In this year of insanity, where it seems like everyone is at ends with each other, many of us have turned to you. This story is something we know and trust and we thank you for giving us a reprieve.

The world that Rowling created is something that we all truly love unabashedly. When we see other Potter fans out in the world, we want to connect with them. We want to reach out and share that love because this series brought us all together.

It isn’t easy getting through the day to day but we think back on the joys we had in this series and how it helped us grow into the people we are today. For many of us, we grew up with Harry. He was our friend, the boy who was struggling and making friends while saving the world.

To many, this series helped us through hard times that we couldn’t really see ourselves getting out of. But at the end of the day, we always returned to Harry. We always came back to see how he would win against evil in the end.

We love you Harry James Potter. You gave us so much joy throughout the years and as 2017 comes to a close, we can’t wait to see what 2018 holds for us and our favorite series. So here is to the Boy Who Lived! May your new year be merry and bright!
