Yes! Lately I have been missing the good old days. But not all of them! 😉
The best definitions of nostaglia I’ve seen and heard came from a scene in ‘Mad Men,’ where Don Draper creates a sales pitch for the Kodak Carousel, ironically using happy family photos, which privately remind him of the demise of his family life and marriage.

Very true! 😀
