bamf here:

When I read that, something clicked.  We've been told
in different ways that those we love never truly leave
us. Even if they die. (I want to say it's in PS/SS by
DD, but it's brought up again in the PoA movie by
Sirius).

Could it be that Harry may eventually figure out that
he has the strength to go on, despite all the PEOPLE
he's lost? (Isn't that part of one of Rita Skeeter's
quotes in her first 'interview', as well? That Harry
'says' he gets his strength from his parents?)

Forgive me for not posting exact quotes, I don't have
my books with me at work...

ta!
bamf!
