Why Child Swing Is Like A Life

[Dragallur]

Hey,

ever wondered about those swings for kids where you go back and forth? Let me explain why they are like a life:

Most people go on them first when they are young, they might not be able to swing alone yet so their parents need to help. At one point though, the child will swing back and forth more and more without any assistance. The kid will try to jump down while swinging getting further and further each time it tries. Sometimes it will bring some pain, sometimes the parents will be angry because the kid's clothes are dirty. When the child grows up it won't go on the swing again, it won't try out jumping even further. Maybe it is because it thinks that doing that is only for kids or maybe that there is no fun in it maybe it would not be worth the pain! Not only that it becomes harder because of all these limiting beliefs, it actually becomes harder in practice! Muscles stop being so flexible, the feet will be dragging on the ground slowing you down, bones will break like nothing even if you manage to jump (which will quickly demotivate you from doing it again). At some point you won't be even able to walk to the damn playground... and that's how swing is like a life .

Sometimes it might not be so easy.

Sometimes it will look pretty darn cool.
