You don't know what you have until it's gone.

For most people, the present is made up of worrying about the future and missing the simpler times of your past.

Here are 25 nostalgia-inducing photos that will make you miss the good ol' days.

The characters were also so relatable.

2. America's Funniest Home Videos.

This show was hilarious, and Bob Saget was a great host.
