"Back in my day..."
I heard a saying that people who often start sentences with "Back in my day, I used to..." are usually just saying that the past was better than the present. Seems kinda true.

Hearing you say that just now brought a touch of nostalgia to my heart too...♡ But rather than lamenting the present, I feel like those past times are more like hidden sweets in my pocket♩ Heh, do you perhaps have any 'back in the day' stories you can't tell that you'd like to share with me?❤

Not necessarily, I also use "back in the day" to describe tough times back then🤣 Like, back in the day, I was tortured (??) at cram school

People used to say that if you said this, you were old... But now I really feel like things aren't what they used to be 🤫
Not necessarily.

I feel the same. If the present is good, you won't miss the past.

I often think about the old days too, but just reminiscing about them is tough.

AuthorBack then, though not wealthy, I had no greed. With clear eyes, everything seemed good and joyful. Now, though I don't lack material possessions, Growth has made it easy for me to see through people. Sometimes I really miss The days of playing in the dirt without a care, And laughing out loud without any worries.

Not necessarily. People like new things, but they also cherish the old; it's the magic of nostalgia.
