I am sensing you are quite right about the next big adventure, but I 
envision it differently to you. Looking at the prophecy I see a third 
person in it. I am thinking that the WW and all of us are taking it 
too far for granted that it only pertains to two.

Valky:
With this I agree totally. Harry almost entirely decided to say he 
wanted to be an Auror at the last second ,I believe, based on Rons 
interest in it and a reflection on Crouch!Moodys comments the 
previous year. I distinctly remember Harry's personal interest in an 
Auror career dissappearing rapidly after it was mentioned. Harry 
never really wanted to be an Auror, or anything for that matter, but 
happy in a loving home.
  

>The only goal he must complete is killing Voldemort. 

Valky:
With this I disagree, in part, because, I believe Harry, at no time, 
ever expected that he would need to kill Voldemort. 
Now he needs to seriously consider himself as a killer of somebody 
Harry may find himself unable to think happily about any time 
afterwards. 
>From this I am deducing that Harry will be able to see another future 
purpose for himself. Conquering Death. Much like Voldemort pursued 
the quest for immortality Harry will pursue a different type of 
conquest over death.
He does not want to kill. But he has to. So Harry will do the one 
thing that he really needs, to face his future. He will try to 
understand it.

Valky:
Again, I agree beyond any doubt.
Harry will lay down his life for the ones he loves with out a second 
thought. I'm not really sure how that will happen, if it does.
