I don't even have any explicit context other than eating sandwiches at the beach, but we were just kids and probably eating and horsing around, so you can only imagine how something like that might happen.
These days, if I was at the beach eating a sandwich and there was even the slightest hint of it containing any sand I'd be tossing it in the nearest trash receptacle.
Scrutiny of nostalgia is the sand in the sandwich.
It's like going back and trying the ice cream treats that were so wonderful as a child... and noticing how small and cheap they really were.
Best to hold fast to the feeling of the moments, rather than trying to recapture them.
I followed the Science, and all I found was the Money.
