“I challenge you to find a more comprehensive, well-organized volume of parables and inspiring stories on the art of living well than this one. In It’s All Part of the Dance, Alan Gettis shows us how to find happiness in an upside down world. He really gets it. Not only does he get it, he eloquently illustrates how you can too. This book works on many levels. There is nothing esoteric or pedantic about it. Reading like a novel, it is easy to become engrossed in the stories – yet each page reveals part of the secret of true happiness. Sometimes it is obvious, at other times more subtle. Do yourself a favor; read it once as quickly as you wish, then go back and spend time going through it slowly, savoring it and allowing your mind to absorb the essence of each story. Chock-full of concepts and ideas that you can use in your life today, It’s All Part of the Dance: Finding Happiness in an Upside Down World gets my highest recommendation. Get the book and you too can ‘get it’ in this upside down world!”
