The prophecy explains to Harry that the actions of everyone around him is protecting him because they all know he is in grave danger. He explains how everyone is Harry´s life chooses to risk their own life to protect him and keep him safe because the prophecy must live on.

He would also feel pressured because the outcome of Harrys action will determine everyone elses fate.

3.) Should he alter his plans/actions now? Why or why not

Harry should not alter his plans because Voldemort has already returned. Harry has been practicing for an immensely long time for his plan against him, and so he cannot just change his plans for what he has worked so hard for. Harry must not run from his problems and should face them straight on no matter his fear because he can not escape the prophecy he was born into.

4.) If you could be told your future would you want to hear it? (you may copy and paste your response from the warm up discussion today if you feel the same way still or you may create a new response)

If I had to choose for someone to tell me my future, I would not want to hear it because that would make me second guess everything in my life living up to my last days of living. I would want fate to determine my life, not someone who would tell me what my fate of my future already is.
