Summer Book Review #5: Renewed by Lucille Zimmerman

My mentor, Victoria Munro, introduced me to Lucille Zimmerman the author of Renewed: Finding Your Inner Happy in an Overwhelmed World. The three of us sat down on a lovely June afternoon and listened to each other’s hearts for about an hour.  I am very impressed with the godly woman that Lucille is.  She has a sweet spirit and a lot of insight in what it means to rest and learn self-care.

She introduced me to the Dutch word gezellig (heh-SELL-ick). Its meaning is a combination of cozy, quaint, nice, friendly, comfortable, relaxing, enjoyable and gregarious. I’ve decided that I need to pursue more gezellig in my life.
