"In swimming, everyone calls me grandma, because I'm the oldest there. Then with my friends, I'm the youngest and I'm the baby. It's definitely bizarre"
- Amanda Beard
About this Quote
Amanda Beard's quote talks to the strange duality of her life. On one hand, she is the earliest in the swimming pool, and is hence referred to as "grandma" by her peers. On the other hand, when she is with her good friends, she is the youngest and is described as the "infant". This odd juxtaposition of being both the earliest and the youngest in different contexts is absolutely strange, and speaks with the intricacy of life. It is a suggestion that all of us have different functions to play in different contexts, which life has lots of surprises. It is likewise a suggestion to welcome the strange duality of life and to maximize every circumstance.
