BENEVOLENT CREATIVE’s Post

Sometimes being a talented writer means possessing the hubris to know you simply cannot pen something better than what already exists. In this case, I must highlight Vocabulary.com's definition of dalliance which states: “First appearing in Middle English, the noun dalliance stems from the verb dally, meaning ‘to waste time, to act playfully, especially in a flirtatious way.’ Dalliance often describes a casual flirtation — generally something short-term and not very serious. Your aunt may blush when you mention her dalliance with the rugby player she met that time in Dublin. Dalliance can also refer to goofing off when you should be working. Your coworker's continued dalliance can result in missed deadlines.” May you be surrounded by inspiring productivity as opposed to distracting dilly-dallying this week 📈 DALLIANCE noun 1. the deliberate act of delaying and playing instead of working 2. playful behavior intended to arouse romantic interest #WOTD #wordoftheday #productivity
