Fallow(FAL-oh)

Quick Detail: Fallow describes something left unused or undisturbed so it may rest, recover, and quietly gather strength again.

Definition: Fallow describes land set aside from growth, allowed to regain strength over time. The surface may look quiet, even barren, yet the pause is deliberate and restorative. The word suggests a waiting season, where stillness serves a purpose. Fallow spaces often feel untouched, holding potential rather than absence. It reflects rest as a form of renewal.
