Word of the day


Today's word is BROWN STUDY.

Brown study [BROWN-STUD-ee] noun: a state of serious absorption or abstraction

Example:
Some of the best<b> poems </font></b>come from the times I lose myself in a brown study freeing my mind and spirit to flow with the rest of the universe.

Did you know?
"Lack of company will soon lead a man into a brown study." Whether or not it's true, that 1532 admonition is the first known example that shows the "reverie" sense of "study" combined with "brown" (in the old and now rare sense of "gloomy"). Today, not all brown studies are "gloomy"—some are merely abstracted—but not, we hope, to the extent that provoked the editors of an encyclopedia of the 1950s to call it "a state nearly related to hypnosis and characterized by the ... arrest of bodily movement."

Another LONG day, practice seriously kicked my ass tonight. But again I'm getting better, slowly but still getting better! I hope y'all had an amazing thirsty Thursday
