You know, that reminded me of the following:

bubbles: if you were harry potter for a day what would you do?
JK Rowling replies -> If I, personally, were Harry Potter I think I 
would go and hide somewhere, but that's because I know what's coming!

Could that be what she was referring to? Probably not, considering 
there is much hardship of other kinds in store for him, what with the 
prophecy and all. Just thought I'd share my thoughts.
