Is it normal to feel so sad and nostalgic even though life is great

Right now my life is great.I have a wonderful wife and daughter,a good job to support them,a nice home and a bright future ahead.Trouble is I seem to have phases where I think about old times though not neccessarily significant ones.I tend to dwell on them and land up feeling upset that they are in the past.Its not even like I have any regrets and I certainly would not want to change how things are in the present.

    It's completely normal, we always mourn change. Those times of your life have died and you are now in a different phase of life.

    Take a vacation, or get out there and have some fun. Do something to spice up your life you need it!

    hm don't get me wrong..have you suffered from mental illness or have bipolar disorder running in your family?! It could be some of the sort...just giving some idea as I know bipolar traits and if you were to have it, it is a common diagnose and people live with it.
