Remember the good old days where we used to run to the swings and the slides? I loved the swings. I used to go to one of my relatives’ house only cos their quarters had a play area with swings 
Every time I sat on a swing, I had only one feeling. I should swing higher than the person on the neighboring swing! Little did I realise then that the play taught the game of life.
When we played, there were screeching voices of “higher! higher!”. My older cousins or parents used to accompany me and they helped me swing higher up in the air. But as i grew up, nobody helped me. I used to feel extremely bad that i could never go as high as my brother. He booed me. But i didn’t give up. I learnt the simple technique that I’ve to apply force. I also used to get scared that I might slip and fall.There was so much will power and determination and also the competition , the adrenalin rush and joy and laughs. I’m surprised that i also understood that its alright if I went way back, it only meant that I’d go higher up the next time. Its sad that we fail to understand all of it while living life.
Life is nothing but a swing. Initially parents help you. But later you’ve to grow, learn things on your own. Face difficulties, may be trivial or complex. You have to face competition. You must have the strong desire to go high, touch the skies and sing the song of life. At the same time, its important to realize that we might even face failures or low points in life. We should understand that we shall definitely rise higher next time and not be disappointed. But of course if we work. We ‘ve to let our heels apply the force. Swing signifies the various entities and moods in our life. It shows the fun times we ‘ve with all our friends and relatives. It shows the pleasantness and the secure feeling of swinging with a loved one.It shows our success, our desires, fears, our strong points and most of all it tells us that the actual control is in our hands. So invoke all the hidden spirits and swing high up in the air and enjoy the journey of life!
Nice one…we can also think of life as a sine wave with a lot of noise components added to it
…sometimes we lag behind by a certain phase angle, and sometimes when we are in a good position, we have a positive phase difference……of course, the efforts needed have to be amplified to some extent to get the desired results 
(@ Ashwin, hope my ‘tronics knowledge is not below par

hehe nice imagination. N ya we sometimes meet people of same wavelength
N also if its of the same wavelength from the opp direction, we become stationary waves 
though interference may be constructive or destructive! n amplification is necessary at regular intervals as u say.We also try to catch up with different frequencies and try to attain greater amplitude

ok enough of physics..
(@Ashwin- didnt know u r in tronics. ok if the above explanation is good, thank me. else blame Nikhil

@Nikhil- nice thinking, and good elex knowledge i must say.! I’d recommend a band-pass filter with maximum possible bandwidth to be designed to filter the noise components. [so that we don't get affected by them] and use a full wave rectifier so that we don’t have negative components..!
@Sri-good one! and good explanation. and for stationary waves, no energy losses..!

@Ashwin
i think even half wave rectifier ‘ll do for a contented, peaceful life 
thank u
