I read something very interesting from Brene Brown’s Rising Strong book. She characterized nostalgia as a negative emotion to be feeling. It’s a feeling where all the good old days have past and there’s nothing left in the future. I occasionally do find myself thinking about when everything used to be so great, but I should definitely follow your lead and be grateful for the present as well. Things are just as good, if not better than the past and it will get better in the future as well. Thanks for this article!
