Hey brother, guys, we all know the story of Harry Potter, the chosen one, the boy who lived.

Somehow, the greatest Dark Wizard of All Time shows up at his house in the middle of the night, kills both of his parents, but then meets his downfall trying to kill baby Harry.

How new Harry? How do? This is the main mystery driving forward the plot throughout the Harry Potter books.

It's not always front and center and certainly it spends a lot of time in the back seat just like yelling like,

hey can I be answered yet?

We get there when we get there.

But why Harry was targeted to begin with, how he survived,

and what made his situation unique is always a present question and it isn't really fully resolved until the end of

Deathly Hallows. Now the short answer to the question is revealed very early on that Harry's

mother died for him and her sacrifice protected him.

Or as Dumbledore likes to say, love.

And it's very sweet and relatable and you feel like you can understand it,

but then it does immediately sort of pose a bunch of new questions like for example

uh didn't James also just die why didn't his sacrifice count towards protecting

Harry or heck why didn't it protect Lily? Great question today

weeks one.
