Wonder Word #2
If you missed the Wonder Word #1 post let me repeat the thinking behind my wonder words.
Every once in awhile I hear or read a word that I suddenly connect with on a whole different level. I call it a “wonder word.” I wonder what it means. I wonder if it’s a verb, a noun or something else. I wonder if it’s a word I could use. I wonder what words rhyme with it.
If I don’t know what it means I’ll google it. If it’s one of the craziest or coolest words on the planet I want to remember it. I’ll store it in the part of my brain that keeps track of all the crazy stuff that I might want to revisit someday.
Today’s word is…
wretched- despicable, contemptible, mean, pitiful, worthless, miserable
I think this is a word that might come in handy sometime.
It’s a keeper!
It pays to be fearless. Love to all…Karm

This is a great word – so expressive methinks.
Thanks. It will have it’s place at the proper time.
So often a word just pops out and strings along a poem. In their emotional/energetic sense, each word means something different to different people. “Wretched” … the loses to suicide, early death. “Wretched” … the meanness of a bully. “Wretched” … the friend dying of cancer. “Wretched” … grinding poverty.
I like that you used Scrabble pieces here! Wonderful.
Enjoyed my first visit here.
Wish you happy – not wretched – days.

I think we all have moments of stillness where as you say a word just pops out. I say where the heck did that come from. Life is funny. Not wretched at all.
Ah, GF…It comes from not only your beautiful mind, but from your very heart as well! Loved this! Hugs!
