I want this ish forever man, ever man.

Whenever I think of the disappointing, least likely outcome, I think of Harry Potter and how he has overcome.
1) Naivety sucks. And it doesn't: Though grownups are well intentioned and looking out for our best, you gotta let the kids do it on their own. Just trusssst. Granted, sometimes the youthful naivety can get our godfathers killed as we jump to foolish conclusions, in the end, we'll save the world. Give us our wand and spellbooks, but allow us to decide how to use them.
2) Set aside your differences for someting greater: Whether red-head, culry haired, supposedly evil, or a half breed, we're all fighting for the same cause. And that is the strongest bond.
3) Forever exists: The euphoria can be blinding at times, excitement that this is how you want it and won't give it up. Looking forward to a forever that everyone says is fleeting. BUT. 19 years later, everyone's still close friends because they had that strong bond of fighting for teh same cause. So, I'm looking forward to forever with you all. You're not going anywhere.
4) It is absolutely okay to lash out: Harry has taught me that angst is not a horrible thing. I can be angsty and still see the end goal. And ya'll will be there to take the punches.
5) Lean on somebody: You can't do it alone. And even if you could, it would be done poorly. Ask for help, these people want to help.
"'Cause we are wizards
And our hearts are filled with hope
With curses flying around, oh
We'll stand firm and hold our ground
Our friends, they will fight with us
'Til you say bitter end
But we say better"
-Song for the Death Eaters
