よみがえる, 押し寄せる

If memories or feelings flood back, you suddenly remember them very clearly.

:
When I visited my old school, all the memories of my childhood came flooding back.
昔の学校を訪れたとき、子供の頃の思い出がすべてよみがえってきた。
The smell of freshly baked bread made feelings of nostalgia flood back.
焼きたてのパンの匂いが、懐かしい気持ちをよみがえらせた
