I very much do not want to write about power. However, I have nothing else to write about so....
As most blog prompts do, this one makes me think of Harry Potter. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, we learn much more about Albus Dumbledore than we ever knew. As a teenager, Dumbledore was power hungry. He and Grindelwald had plans to become the most power wizards of all time through acquiring the three deathly hallows. After he, Grindelwald and Aberforth, Albus's brother, killed their sister, Albus changed. He saw his mistakes, and he became a truly good man and an incredible wizard. From then on, he was encouraged by the wizarding community to take office. He was asked multiple times to be the Minister, but he turned the position down every time. Dumbledore knew his limits, he knew that he could not handle power. Power makes him do crazy things. Most people struggle to gain more power, but Dumbledore struggled to resist power.
