Old is Gold

Got hold of these pics ofIndia shot a century ago.
I have kinda started enjoying the pics from yester years , i look for the sorroundings , the tidyness of the place around ... and I feel those were good old days to live in.
I wonder what we have missed in our generation, now digitsl media is so ubiquitas, i dont think if someone see the snaps of today a century later, he will feel nostalgic ..it is that rarity that causes the desire to own it.
I also wonder what the next generation will miss. Will it be:
- Food served on a broad leaf and to be eaten while sitting on the floor?
- sleeping under the open sky in villages?
- exploring things rather then watching them on television?
- drinking water of a well ?
- flying kites?
To add to that global warming is a scary thing . Lets see where we are heading.

Hmmm... Many people are already deprived of the things that you listed. These give wonderful feeling.
I am lucky to have enjoyed all of these but the last one, that too by choice. :)
