That was some powerful writing on Melancholy by Shashank, raw emotions and thoughts flowed! Nostalgia is one of my favorite words (if you wonder can one even have favorite words, yes, I can 🙂 ) So there was no discussion, it was straight fit nostalgic and I did not want to give a love angle to nostalgic to that’s my take and for another super 5 sentence fiction on the same feeling read Shashank’s post here.
