You’re Never Too Old To Be Silly.

Harry and Sally were never ashamed to be themselves in public when they were together. They shared laughs, put on silly voices, and sang to their heart’s content. Despite getting older, the pair never lost their whimsy. In fact, the older we saw the pair get, the more fun they had together!

Both Harry and Sally experienced the troubles of getting older, falling out of relationships, and finding that what kept them going was their friendships. It’s no secret that life isn’t easy.

It’s Okay To Have Emotions, It’s Okay To Be Reserved, But It’s All About Finding The Balance.

Harry and Sally have their own ways of expressing their emotions. As they show, Harry’s constant approach to situations with flares of his emotion often cause empty insults, harsh criticisms, and rash decisions. On the complete opposite end, Sally’s coldness toward self-expression leaves so much bottled up. The pair preach the need for balance in their two extremes, which is a much needed lesson.
