Harry  get all of LV powers?

> Why can't he be the next DD who defeted another Dark wizard 
early in his life?  Sorry I'm on the road and don't have my books 
in front of  me.  Why can't Harry come out of this more powerful 
than when he  went into this? This would set him up to become 
a great teacher and  the next Head Master.  Instead of going way 
to the left why don't we  think the best for Harry?  I think he will 
come out of this better  off than when he started.

> Hopefully he will. (My original comment was: The thought of 
Harry  being thrown back into the muggle world after 7 years in 
the WW just  doesn't work for me. He would be woefully 
unprepared to function as  an adult in that world.) This 
discussion started as speculation on my part.

positive  instead of the less positive Sacrifice without 
redemption.<

Pippin:
Absolutely. Harry should come out of this with his heart's desire. 
But is that to be a great wizard? I think not. He's tempted by it, 
just as he's tempted by the thought of being a world class 
Quidditch player or a Tri-wizard champion. But what he really 
wants, what he's always wanted, is a family who loves him. 

 He thinks he can't have that in this world. But he *can*, he just 
doesn't know it yet. Call me a shipper, call me a hopeless 
romantic, but when he's given up the wizarding world to save it, 
and   it seems he's lost everything, there'll turn out to be one 
witch who thinks, like Arthur Weasley, that the Muggle world does 
not lack for wonder, and besides, any world with Harry in it is 
magical enough.
