Sleepless Nights
Lately its become that i say goodbye to you as you go to work and i try to fall asleep ... but sleep doesnt come so easily... ill end up writing or doing homework or sorting music for the hundredth time... my sleepless nights have just become yet another part of my life that is now stuck in a rut... i do the same stuff everyday... i dont even have to look at my work schedule anymore because i already know what its going to be... i need to do something exciting.. something intreging... but what... i need a spark of creativity .. a muse.. anything to get me out of this rut...

"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death..."
"The headstone was only two rows behind Kendra and Ariana's. It was made of white marble, just like Dumbledore's tomb, and this made it easy to read, as it seemed to shine in the dark. Harry did not need to kneel or even approach very close to it to make out the words engraved upon it.
James Potter Lily Potter
Born 27 March 1960 Born 30 January 1960
Died 31 October 1981 Died 31 October 1981
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
Harry read the words slowly, as though he would have only one chance to take in their meaning, and he read the last of them aloud. 'The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death...' a horrible thought came to him , and with it a kind of panic. 'Is'nt that a Death Eater idea? Why is that there?'"
I had the same question as Harry when i started researching the quote for my eventual deathly hallows tattoo...
while scouring the Internet i found the perfect answer posted by someone named Cedric on yahoo answers.... i thought i would share it with you...
James and Lily had accepted death. James accepted it when he chose to fight Voldemort to his death in their home, and when Lily died willingly to protect her son. At the end of the last book, Harry was able to accept death and embrace it for the good of those he loved, and in doing that, death was no longer an enemy.
You conquer death when you are not afraid to die.
Also, that quote was taken from the Bible (1 Corinthians 15:20-26):
"But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death."
If you look at the quote contextually, it also has further meaning. At the end of Deathly Hallows, when Harry "conquers" death by accepting it and submitting himself to Voldemort, and he is then "reborn", very much like Christ.
Harry Potter has a handful of biblical allusions if you care to look.
so i thank you Cedric.. this answered it perfectly and it also added another meaning to it as well...

Black Or White?
If Vanilla beans are black how come things vanilla flavored are white?
If polar bears have black skin and clear fur then how come they look white?
Are zebras black with white stripes... or white with black stripes?
Where exactly is the end of a rainbow? Is there really gold there?
Very important questions i feel....

Harry Potter Surplus...
So... for my English class we have to make a presentation about one of the books we read in high school and compare it to something happening currently. So i picked good v. evil in Lord of the Flies and I'm gonna compare it to good v. evil in Harry potter. So i got to work last night tagging quotes and important things in the books. Well... i realized that it will definitely be easier to find things for harry potter than LOTF. I mean LOTF... 208 pages.... entire Harry Potter series.... 4,176 pages... I'm definitely gonna have a surplus of harry potter info... but wait...is that a bad thing?
