20 Pics That Show Us How Time Can Change Anything but True Love

Time changes almost everything around us. It changes how we look, how we think, and almost everything in the entire world. But one thing that is constant, and that time can never change, is true love. And true love can be found almost everywhere, not just among humans, but in the animal kingdom as well.

To celebrate love in all shapes and sizes, we at Bright Side compiled 20 photos that will remind each and every one of us that there is nothing more important than loving others and being loved.

1. They were destined to be best friends from the very start.
