Word for the Day for Tuesday, December 16, 2008

The Word for Today is Consequence.

First time through, it was about the game show, "Truth or Consequences". Second time, I threw my hands up in the air and asked for help.

I'll try to do better this time, beginning with the web. This idea, of course, is that Consequence is the "effect" part of "Cause and Effect". Karma comes to mind, since people often think of Consequence(s) as a "negative" occurrence. Another insight from the "web link" is, "the Outcome of an Event, especially as it pertains to an individual".
