It was over twenty years ago when one book revolutionized the lives of young all over the world. Soon there were others; longer, darker, and more serious volumes caught our attention - the readers hungry for the exciting world of magic. Harry Potter has become the most famous wizard in the world. Equally famous were all his friends, enemies, actors portraying the main roles, and twists of plot. Equally popular were the spells, which workers and school children repeated over and over again, the Hogwarts letters, mentioned when frustrated at the current career path or triggered by one bad mark at maths. Exciting was the wait for publications and premieres, fisty were discussions and Halloween parties where witches' hats were crowding the room. We have been under a spell of J.K.

Some of us don't have to fail, there are others who do this for us, making our marriages break up, our whole lives turn upside down, and the sense of safety shattered completely. There is nothing extraordinary in falling down and one has to get up sooner or later. But maybe in the greatest downfalls, there is light at the end of the tunnel and there is luck in every misfortune.
