Mathieu,

You asked an awful lot of questions.  So many, that I get the sense that you 
are at a cross-road in your life.  You are one of the most enthusiastic and 
dedicated people who I have ever met.  But this question...

> -How do you meet your perfect soulmate, who would be puppet-friendly, a 
> performer, and be good > -at business?

...compels me to give you this advice: find and try to maintain a balance in 
your life.  I can tell you from experience, that eventually it won't be the 
number of puppets you created, or how far flung around the world your 
performances took place, or how much money you earned that's important.  It 
will be the way you lived your life.

Your soulmate does not have to be involved in puppetry (that can even be a 
good thing).  I don't mean to lecture you, but you should not be "living and 
breathing" puppetry 24/7.

Also, don't live for tomorrow.  Enjoy the present.  And if you should meet 
someone with whom you think you could have a future, go for it.

Robert Rogers
