Awww! So much adorable in one tiny kitten. It almost looks as though it’s glaring at the photographer though…

Reblogging again because it’s weird.

uhhhhhhhhh.

HEY, whoever wrote this. If you HAPPEN to be reading this, my suggestion: have faith. Because I felt EXACTLY like you two years ago. Everyone was saying the fandom was ending, but I still felt like I hadn’t gotten my chance! I would cry at all of the fiveawesomegirls/wrockers videos about the fandom, and regret the fact that I had missed my chance at having amazing experiences and friends like them. 
And see how wrong I was! I swear, I have the most amazing friend group, just like they seem to have. I’ve been to two cons and I’ve definitely experienced most of the things I looked up to in their lives, in relation to the fandom. And I dunno. Little over a year ago, I would have never believed it could be true. So I say don’t give up yet. Try to go to any event you can, try to make twitter/tumblr/youtube friends - who knows where it will lead you <3

The thing is… you shouldn’t regret that you weren’t part of something that happened before your time. Look toward your own future. Harry Potter is important but it’s not the only thing. You’re only FOURTEEN. I didn’t know ANY of these girls at 14. I had no idea I’d be involved in this fandom the way I have been, and my involvement in this stuff didn’t even begin to happen until 4-5 years after I was 14.
I began to feel this way about Buffy when I first started watching it last year — I was so upset I wasn’t watching it when it aired; that I missed the entire boat on being a part of that fandom when it was happening. But other people had that time, and it was probably awesome for them, and hey. I still managed to bond with people over Buffy ten years later, and I couldn’t really get upset about it anymore because the end of one awesome thing doesn’t mean there will never be anything new to affect us like really good books/tv shows/movies/music can.
Just because you’re a little too young (or just weren’t around) when WE experienced Harry Potter this way doesn’t mean you can’t experience it in your own time, or find something else that inspires you this much in a new way.
Never pine for other people’s experiences. What truly makes these moments special is that they’re all our own; you can and WILL find those things for yourself. I promise.

This letter is probably one of the sweetest fandom related things I have read in a long time, and something that applies to every aspect of life. Always hope. Always dream. But hope and dream for yourself. Life’s too short to try and live as someone else.

I think I needed that reminder :)
