Things that once seemed cool but now feel outdated?

Hello everyone!

I hope y'all are doing great. Everyone has his own past and most of them tries their best to not look at it. For instance if we put a glance at our dressing sense 4 years back we'd definitely laugh at it and tries to hide those pictures from our friends. This is human psychology that we groom up with time. We gets to learn new things and latest trends. Old one seems outdated and cringe no matter how much we liked it back then.

We have to go from certain things that not only makes us emotionally strong but also helps in character development. Basically this is also an art in which we learn new things but sadly we despise our own selves while looking at past. Instead we should bravely embrace what we were couple of years back.

Things that were fashion in our times.

1: Colour TV

When I were a kid we used to flex over our color TV. It was considered such a big thin because it was not very common among neighborhood. People usually had b/w TV and owning such a gadget was very big thing for us. But with time the technology has also developed and things which were once cool are now outdated.

2: Pencil boxes

It might sound awkward but yes, having your own pencil box with multiple drawers and built in pencil sharpener was considered such a show off in our times. All the students will flatter around that RICH kid. Nowadays children prefer having a single ball pen with them rather then carrying a whole pencil box.

3: Shiny makeup

Me and my siblings used to do makeup using soo much glitter. It was fashion at that time. We were inspired by Bollywood celebrities and tried to copy them as much as we can. But as the time passes it became old-fashioned. Now my daughter do her nude or latina makeup and she also teaches me latest techniques.

MAIN REASON OF DISCUSSION!

The main reason behind discussing this all was that we should proudly accept what we were. There is no shame in accepting the fact. I don't mean that we shouldn't learn new things and modernize. We should definitely cope with latest trends but never ever think low of our past. It had it own beauty at that time and most importantly we were happy with that.

I'd like to invite @alfazmalek @reflektor and @uzma4882 to participate in this contest and share their ideas.
