the dread that's already living next week's disaster while you're stuck in today.
means A feeling of anxiety or unease about something that might happen, or alternatively the act of grasping something — whether an idea with the mind or a fugitive with the hands.
from From Latin apprehendere, "to seize, grasp, lay hold of" — from ad- ("to") plus prehendere ("to seize"), the same grabbing root behind "prehensile" and "comprehend." The word first meant a mental grasping — seizing an idea — and from there it reached, fittingly, in two directions: outward to physically seizing a person (an arrest is still an "apprehension"), and inward to the mind that has already grabbed hold of a future fear and won't let go.
