Nostalgia, yes or no. Thoughts?

Do you think nostalgic thoughts are good or bad for the soul? I'm 62 years old therefor, I grew up in a much simpler time. I often miss that part of growing up. No internet, smart phone, etc., etc. But then again, times in the 1970s was downright volatile, at least in my world and surroundings. I'm wondering how others regard this topic.

I don't think there's anything wrong with nostalgia per se. I think the problem comes when nostalgia pushes out appreciation of the present, even to the point of preventing new ideas and new trends to take root.
