Remember how easy things were when you were younger? You could play video games all day with your friends, eat endless amounts of oreos and puffy Cheetos, and spend hours at the pool. Life was carefree and full of fun! If only we could go back to the good old days…

Why is it that we don’t know we are in the good old days until they are gone? Better yet, why do we get so caught up thinking about the good old days? It’s funny how nostalgia can make us remember the good times we had while simultaneously making us forget about the bad times that happened (I bet you don’t miss homework, do you?).

It’s fun to remember the past, but we also need to take time to appreciate the good times we have now. The present can quickly become the good old days we reminisce on, so appreciate it while it’s here!
