Nostalgia

We have all heard the theory on how attachment is bad. I can see how attachments to people and things could be unhealthy; nothing good ever came from codependency or hoarding. However, this is my question. Is it always unhealthy?

I am a sentimental person. I cherish memories and items that remind me of those memories. It’s not the item itself that I am attached to. It’s those moments in life that make me smile. Those moments make my life feel rich and meaningful. It’s the memories.
