Realizing the need for self-care is of paramount importance. When we assume primary responsibility for the happiness of others, we often leave ourselves without joy, and often feelings of resentment can result. Happiness is a matter of choosing how we will think and the actions we decide to take. However, as Neidigk's book states, IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO DANCE!
"You and I always have reasons to dance, things to rejoice in." No matter your situation, regardless of the ups and downs throughout our life, God is with you through it all. Since we only have so much time on this earth, it is better to spend what time we do have enjoying what we can. Donald Neidigk explains that our happiness, how much we enjoy life, is solely up to us - the way that we approach each experience.
This book will be useful for ministry professionals as well as any member of the church family - anyone who loves serving God and wants to experience sustainable joy in their work. At the end of each chapter, Neidigk has included discussion questions, to ask in private or discuss with a group.
Neidigk defines "dancing" as rejoicing in life, especially over small accomplishments and finding joy at every opportunity and in all circumstances. There is no reason to feel guilty about "dancing;" you are a child of God, made in his image, and that alone is cause for celebration!
