I was at work yesterday daydreaming my break away as usual and I was rubbing my phone with my thumb. When i rub the screen it smudges the screen and unconsciously i wrote lea. I'v come across leah /lea before on a 'spiritual' website but didn't any information on what it is or means.
I thought I would have a little look around the web but nothing or any note comes up so I checked out the etymology of the word which is as follows.
lea (n.) Look up lea at Dictionary.com
Old English leah "open field, meadow, piece of untilled ground," earlier læch, recorded in place names, from Proto-Germanic *laukhaz (cf. Old High German loh "cluster of bushes," and probably also Flemish -loo, which forms the second element in Waterloo), from PIE *louquo- (cf. Sanskrit lokah "open space," Latin lucus "grove," Lithuanian laukas "open field"), perhaps from or related to *leuk- "to shine, be bright" (see light (n.)).
I feel there might be something in there but I'm not joining the dots does any one have any insights on the word Lea?
