Isolation is like being an island, surrounded by the sea. When you are isolated, you are separated from the noise of a busy world. Within that silence, the soul can speak. Isolation shouldn't be lonesome.

How related are the words partner and separate?
We've discussed before that origin, *pere means produce or grant. So when added with the prefix *se- or "apart," you will have the word separate which means to take something or someone apart or away.

Partner - Etymologically from the root word pere "produce, procure" leading to later derivatives "grant, allot." Partner originally means sharer or partaker in anything. A partnership is a give-and-take relationship.

Anticipation should not be confused with the word expectation. The prior is an active response to something that is coming in the future while the latter is more passive.

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Anticipate, from its Latin origin is to take something ahead of time. To take care or prevent something happening in future time.

So when looking forward, it's always best to put yourself in the position of anticipation. Take it head-on, prepare yourself, do what's necessary.

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Expectation - look forward to, count on, or relying on something to happen. Simply counting on for something to happen in the future. Expecting something is more like a passive effort when looking forward to the future.

Are you in a situation where you want to give up?
Endurance is our word for you today. It's the ability to endure or undergo suffering. Sometimes we need to bear and keep up.

Resilience - Your power to return your original shape, form, or status.
The rainy season is here where the resilience of many Filipinos is tested.
We hope everyone stays safe, may every one of you have the power to be back on your feet whatever is thrown at you.

After a long and hard day, most of us just want to lay our backs and have a glass or cup of one of these. Which one is yours?

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

When we embrace true presence and grasp that this moment is the only place and time in which we have any influence or choice, we begin to experience that sense of inner peace that we’ve been chasing. Not sometime in the future, but now.

Loyal or Faithful?
Faith as mentioned before is based on trust that may still require validation. Loyal on the other hand is from Latin *lex, related to the world legal. A loyal person honors an agreement. What for you is more important in looking for a companion?

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Faith - a deep belief in something good that could yet be proven. The word also belongs to the family of words from Proto-Indo-European root *bheidh- (to trust, confide, persuade). Mostly used in the context of religion, people believe that something is for their growth.
#WOTD

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Confidence - a deep belief that you can do something successfully and repeatedly. The word is of Latin origin composed of the prefix *com-/con- (together) and the word *fidere (trust). Competence is the foundation of confidence. Belief in the repetition of success.

A message of hope from the author:

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

"Untimely passing" as they commonly described it although we can't say anyone's passing is timely at all. Legacy is a word commonly associated with death. But originally, it means "ambassador." What you stand for matters. How would you like to be remembered?

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Conviction where *con is an intensifier, and *vict is related to the word victory. Conviction is when you believe in something that precedes all others in your mind. Is it motivated by something that's loving in truth? Then it could be a belief. If not, it's just a conclusion.

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

How do you put your words in to actions? Do these words make or break you?
They say words can be a powerful weapon or a healing patch, and it can also be used to one's own self, so use them wisely.

[Empowering Etymologies @e_etymologies]

Belief is based on facts and truth motivated by care or love. There cannot be a limiting factor for that.
It's just fitting that we call these limiting conclusions and not limiting beliefs.
Conclusion may be factual but not motivated by emotions.
