This is needlessly reductionist and pessimistic. It is wholly reasonable to pine for the simple joys of life and their passing.



It's also reasonable to point out that this is perhaps a trap lots of people growing old fall into, and also perhaps not the most healthy thing to do.

It might be better to adapt rather than pine, if that's possible.

I could pine for the days of my favorite rock bands not being considered 'classic rock'. I could also try and enjoy new music that isn't strictly 'classic rock'.
