What is “NOSTALGIA”?

we might have been getting a number of meanings
from the word nostalgia..
like homesickness, reminiscence,
recollection of missed things, gloomy thoughts etc …
But I couldn’t findout anywhere a positive meaning
like happiness, recollection of joyful things, hopefulness etc
Everybody is using the same word in each and
every situation with or without giving a meaning……..
Can anybody explain it clearly……..???
I swear nobody can clearly explain the feel of it
Or else,
What would be the feel of nostalgia…….?
How can be explained it………?
What would be the outcomes of nostalgia…?
Is it a happy feeling………….? Or
Is it a sorrowful feeling ………? Or
Is it a missed feeling………?
We never get any clear picture…
bcoz….nobody can explain it……..
As per my knowledge and faith, I can tell,
The feel of nostalgia would giving us all
the emotions like happiness, sadness, missing,
and hopefulness accordindg to the need of situation
let me try to give you an example……..
suppose I am the person having a lot of nostalgic thoughts…..
how could I say that I am having a lot of nostalgic thoughts..?
bcoz as I said earlier it’s a feeling which is generated by
our mind itself…
even so, there will be a feeling which we can’t be explained
by words but we can have it…
as per my experience….. I am getting all these emotions
from such thoughts and it may be varies according to the situation…..
I am at desert now………..
when I reached at here, I missed all the things………
like rain, family, friends, and natural beauties etc …
during those days I felt so missing …….
we can call it as nostalgic feelings…..
Afterthat
the days were going fastly through all emotional feelings…..
Oneday I phoned to my beloved friend…..
he was very happy to say me that there is heavy raining,
then I felt so sad about it,
bcoz if I were at there, even I can also have the rain…
outcomes of such missed feelings always
would be sorrowfulness….
so, we can call it as nostalgia…
now…….
i am counting the days to wing from here to my village…
i will be reached at my home after a very short time..
now…. I don’t have any missed feeling,
i don’t have any sad feeling…….
only a feeling which I am having now…
try to fly at the earliest……..
then only i can meet with my family
i can have the rain……….
i can use the time with my beloved friends..
everything I can have with in a short time..
so…it’s the time of hopefulness…………..
It can be also call as nostalgic thinking for hopefulness….
sometimes you might have been criticised me that
it’s my stupidity…doesn’t matter….
As a reader, you have a right to criticize each write-up
then only he can realised whether he is right or not…

let me conclude with a few words……..

nostalgia is a feeling which is giving to us some special kind of
emotional factors without any expectation and that feeling will be
generated by the mind according to the needs of the time and situation.

Note:


This is not a proved statement………all these things are coming from
myself only and those who are having same thoughts in your mind,
just put your comments Or else you can criticise me with evidence ……..
