There is no feeling that paralyzes us as much as nostalgia. Nostalgia can stop us and make us look at the past, often underestimating the present.
But we are creators and we need the intensity of emotions to have something to share, and what is more intense than memories?, the longing for a moment.
The experiences that we live, either with joy or sadness, teach us new ways of facing situations. Frustration is part of learning, as is euphoria.
According to the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language:
NOSTALGIA
From lat. mod. nostalgia, and this of the gr. νόστος nóstos 'return' and -αλγία -algy '-algia'.
- F. feeling of being absent from the homeland or from relatives or friends.
- F. Melancholy sadness originated by the memory of a lost happiness.
But this melancholy generated by our friend "nostalgia" makes us forget the misfortunes of the past, the mind plays tricks on us, decorating those facts, like someone who places a photographic filter.
To avoid forgetting the bitter drinks that we are going through, why not write a diary? A log of our experiences that help us to organize our ideas and to remember the path that has brought us to the present.

embraces nostalgia
This week in the Cervantes Sainetes, we will talk about nostalgia, a feeling that can be present at any moment of our lives and makes us remember with a certain charm and love some things, people or situations, and also our dear friends of the Cervantes chat, tells us the songs that cause them nostalgia.
Nostalgia seems to be the spark that has set in motion one of the most incredible phenomena of which there is evidence. The teletransportation or teleportation of a person from one point on Earth to another in just a moment.
Hello Steemit community! We started this 2018 with a bit of nostalgia for the farewell of 2017, regardless of the good or bad things that happened throughout that year, I can only say that they all remain in our deepest memories.
Nostalgia surrounds us and in we want to know what you write about this subject
Do you feel nostalgia for something or someone? What do you think about nostalgia?
You write the content, we offer you to participate in the magazine.
Cinema is no longer made like before, the series of the eighties were better than now, actresses from that decade had real glamour, the gallants were much more gallant! And so we could keep going for hours and hours ... nostalgia in the audiovisual world always leads to interesting discussions that end with a very clear conclusion ...that there is no conclusion.
The Holidays are over and it is inevitable to feel nostalgic ... That nostalgia, those memories, the typical post-New Year depression. New year, new goals, things to leave behind. Nostalgia and melancholy overwhelm us and we can't stop feeling this way until February (more or less) ... What can we do?
We invite all Steemians to share their life with the community through writings, drawings or photographs. We want to know what you lived and how.
There is no worse nostalgia than longing for what never happened.
