We all need a little push every now & then...

When I was a little kid I'd go to the park and there was this swing that had a frame  made of big grey steel pipes and you sat in this black rubber strip that was suspended by long brown chains that reached way way up.
 
I'd run and kind of jump to get in the seat but that only worked so much.  I'd struggle to tuck my knees under and push my legs out but sometimes I was just flopping. But, if another kid would give me a push...then I could really make it go.  Then I could lean back and stretch my legs out and go higher and higher as I flew towards the sky.
 
But this is not a song about swinging. Well it is a little bit about swinging but mostly it's about remembering the good things in life. The joy of swinging, helping others, smiling and watching them smile. 
 
After hearing "Swing" a fan told me, "Thanks for the push".  What a wonderful comment.  Makes me think it was worth writing. Thank you for the push Melva Garrett-Campbell. We all need one every now & then ;)
