Which explains the filter effects, perhaps.

Maybe with such a short time component, it becomes nostalgia over space rather than time. Things are so much better over there, not here.

I think when we were younger, we took whatever opportunities we had, and that was our lives. Maybe you envied other people’s lives, but you could only imagine what they were like. Young people today grow up with an intimate awareness of the things they didn’t do.
