Here are some random thoughts that have been troubling me.
For give me if these have already covered but I just found this site.
I am very disappointed at the seemingly backward progression of
Harry's magical abilities. It has been implied and even stated by some
of the characters that Harry is a great wizard but other than the
ability to fly good right off the bat and the patronus he has not
shown any thing but courage (or bull headedness). He has had help in
everything else.
This is disappointing. I keep waiting for him to do something that
makes you say "Wooo, that was awesome" ie. DD bringing the statues to
life to save Harry in MoM.
There is a lot of everyone saying that Harry will not kill LV but if
you read in the American version of OoTP on page 844... in regards to
the prophecy....So, said Harry, dredging up the words from what was
felt like a deep well of despair inside him, "so does this mean
that...that one of us has got to kill the other one ... in the end?
Yes, says Dumbledore.
So that tells me that they will meet one on one again but here is a
problem. DD told Harry that because their wands are from the same
phoenix they will not face each other and if forced would have the
effect as in GoF.
The reason I bring this up is that Harry's lack of remembering the
things he has done is soooo frustrating. I think that Harry could be
the most powerful wizard ever (the prophecy said that a child will be
born with power to vanquish the DL) giving that he is extremely
powerful. Harry has the ability to do magic without a wand ie. the
glass, making things fly around, putting a jinx on his aunt. I have not
read anywhere that any of the other people can do this. If he would
think about these things he might say....Hey how did I do
that?...Maybe (it is my hope) that he will and then he will realize
the power he has. It will have to be something because he can't use
his wand as we have found out and we also know that he can't use
someone else's wand if you remember Neville in OoTP trying to use
someone else's wand to no avail.
I sincerely hope that the power he is full of and that is lock in the
MoM is not what most people believe is "Love"... That is so sappy not
to mention ridiculous...Love is a feeling, an emotion. I hardly think
that that is something you lock in a room.
I'm hoping it is some sort of ancient magic or something that would
explain how he can do things without a wand. We know that wands are
not necessary and are purely a human item - look at elves.
Sorry this is so long just my thoughts.
