Or, as Friedrich Nietzsche is supposed to have said, “The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.”

The term “nostalgia” was coined in 1688 by Swiss physician Johannes Hofer in his medical dissertation. Hofer considered it a medical or neurological disease.

I love the imagery of this:
"Farther up the trail, we were invited inside a charming forest tea house with a wood stove."

"Today there are many designated shinrin-yoku forests and trails throughout Japan..."

“At times you might have thought you were my puppet, but you’re my anchor. Without you, I am adrift.”

So far so good :) Interesting philosophy on the nature of public school education and the role of Industry. Not the first time I have heard it, and I am sure it wont be the last :)
