I've decided that today I start my autobiography. Not because I'm famous, or because I want to share my story with the entire wizarding world, but simply because I want to preserve my memories of this crazy, wonderful, magical life and the people I am fortunate enough to share it with. One day when we've grown old, when my auburn hair has faded to gray and my husband James' boyish blue eyes are framed by wrinkles, I want us to look back on our lives and remember how happy we were, and how it all started. One day, when my son, Harry, has grown into a man I want to show this to him so he knows the power of a love like his parents shared and shared with him. I want him to understand that peace in our wizarding world was worth fighting for, and that we fight this battle now in hopes that he will not have to face the horrors we see every day. I want him to understand that everything we do, we do for him, and for future generations. I want to recognize my friends and colleagues who risk their lives, and those who have lost their lives, fighting this horrible, yet necessary battle. One day, I want to write that we were victorious, that the Death Eaters and Voldemort have been defeated, and that the world can live in peace once more. My name is Lily Potter and this is my story.
