<snip>The authors note that "nostalgia is now emerging as a fundamental human strength". They conclude that "nostalgia is uniquely positioned to offer integrative insights across such areas of psychology as memory, emotion, the self and relationships.

Interesting. That never occurred to me.

This word may have evolved into a different slant pertaining to that subject.

When "Happy days" came on television in the mid 70's,people where talking about Nostalgia,as if it where the good old days. So it was a TV show about the 1950's.

I'm just using the TV program "Happy Days" as a example.

I love the good old days. BF:hug::hug:

A fundamental human strength, hmmmm. It's nice to think of it that way. :) I imagine the nostalgia gets stronger as we age. And I'm just a spring chicken. :rolleyes:
