Nothing says romance quite like this image by LIFE’s Alfred Eisenstaedt. 
Pictured: On August 14, 1945 — VJ Day — a jubilant sailor plants a kiss on a nurse  in Times Square to celebrate the Allies’ long- awaited World War II  victory over Japan. Originally published (not as a cover shot, as  most people assume today, but as just one in a series of “VJ Day  victory celebration” images featured in the middle of the magazine) in  the August 27, 1945, issue of LIFE.

‎For what it’s worth, it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. You can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that stop you. I hope you feel things that you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life that you’re proud of and if you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength and courage to change your life around.
