Harry Potter -

I think what stimulated me on this subject of Harry Potter was seeing children at Squaw carrying their new Harry Potter hardcover books as though they were Bibles, and I realized today they are that, a Bible for children today.  The language is accessible, and the stories are of good and evil, and my sense is that though I'm not to the end of the book, good will triumph.  Perhaps Harry Potter will have to be sacrificed, and there is always resurrection.  She writes archetypal stories in an imaginative way and we are sucked in, and there is some tree root of response.  Ah, connection!  There it is again.  Here is to friends and relatives and all that is love, circulating again and again.
