J.O.M.O

Jomo is an acronym that means Joy Of Missing Out.  Our word of the day was inspired by another acronym, FOMO, which stood for ‘fear of missing out.’ Within the past decade or so, some folks began to notice that missing out on certain activities brought as much joy as fear. Here’s an example of JOMO in use.  I always thought I’d get excited about joining a bird watching club. But let’s face it, here in the big city, without many birds to watch, I began to feel a little JOMO whenever I missed a meeting. Some things are more joyful to miss than others.
