Have You Found the Person You’ll Love Your Whole Life?
Sometimes, love is elusive. However, it’s not impossible. We just have to keep our hearts and minds open to all possibilities.
In Pretty Woman, Edward and Vivian had to separate before realizing they were meant for each other. The same happens in life; sometimes, we don’t understand what we’re blessed with until it’s ripped from our hands. The sad truth is we don’t see the value of something—or someone—until we’ve lost it.
So, before it’s too late, we must show our appreciation for those we love—be it a family member, friend, or partner. We must also never let outside forces dictate who we can and cannot be with. Life is meant to be lived with people who make us feel joy, so who else has the right to tell you who to spend it with?
Pretty Woman is timeless because it integrates classic fairy tales with modern, real-life stories. With that, we hope we were able to give you some inspiration through this list of quotes we’ve compiled!
