That's how nostalgia works. The past is always resolved, romantic and rosy-looking, now that it's the past and all the unpredictable things that might have darkened one's days at the time have been long settled and forgotten, or look simple in retrospect.
Not to mention that bell-bottoms went out of style. Thank God.
