I think that nostalgia is an idealization of the past. We don't remember things the way they were but as we want them to be. The very word "nostalgia" means that. The "good old days" may not have been so good. It's very subjective. When we remember the past we remember them through the filter of the present. I hope this has been a help to you.

Depends entirely upon the impact of the nostalgic thought as compared to current experience.
Anyone with any decent amount of experience in the dating world understands this idea: in between significant others, there may be some nostalgia for the good times you've had with that one special person, but once you settle comfortably into a new (and assumedly better) relationship, those old times and thoughts of the prior relationship slowly become less meaningful as new memories begin to take precedence in the mind and heart.
So in direct answer to your question, yes; event for event, nostalgia is not what it used to be.

Yesterday was good , today was Okay , Tomorrow will be fantastic .

The day you do not have much to look forward to , think that what you achieved could not be more , you live with nostalgia . Today , the human abilities are more sharpened and better avenues have opened . There is always better tomorrow . Be nostalgic and you get left behind in the Race

That is right. This is caused by industries who use aluminum in their products which then finds its way into your brain, such as deodorants and vaccines. These people should be jailed for life for the damage KNOWINGLY caused to millions of people.
