Somethings about the good old days were excellent and fine, and many aspects of it were not, but time and the human tendency to be sentimental nudges us to gloss over the dirtier aspects of yesterday.
We should not be reactionary, following trends favoring total immersion in the past, or, utter rejecting the past.
Common sense must prevail: we should enjoy the past; we should enjoy our heritage. We should acknowledge past mistakes and learn from them if we can.
In the main, we should live in the present and be forward-thinking, anxious and fraught with plans for improving ourselves and things around us, tomorrow.
