What's Old is New Again

Sorry for the delay in writing, I have been quite busy with personal issues that needed to be handled. While I was out and around, I ran across this bottle of Jean Nate' at CVS. I immediately thought of my grandmother, who used to wear it back in the 1990's. It seems, now and past years, that whenever we go forward in time, we seem to step 20 years into the past. In the 2010s, we seem to have gone back to the 1990s. In the decade of 2000-2009, we went to the '80s with music, fashions to a point, and other different areas. Same with the '70s in the '90s, the '60s in the '80s, and the '50s in the '70s. It's the "One step forward, two steps back" type of viewpoint, or "One decade forward, two decades back". The yearning for the past is understandable, when modern life gets a bit complicated, people want to look back to the days when life was at least a bit simpler, back to when you were a kid, teenager or young adult.
