I am moving in the direction of Costume Designer for Theatre. I love it. I have art work I love to do. I have friends old and new. I am constantly meeting friends who continue to inspire, challenge and support me. I am having time to spend with my 6 and 3 year old nieces, precious ages, stellar little people/teachers. Thanks for reminding me to think about this. xo Kristen Bond, Clothing Artist.

Similar to Danielle there are just too many things that have been going WRONG. SO this is a great question for me right now as it allows me to focus on the positive. So what is going right?

1. My roof has finally been fixed so it's no longer raining indoors
2. I have good team dynamics within the projects I'm working on
3. I have a family that absolutely supports me in every way possible
4. I have at least one friend I can count on through all the madness

Ruby,

Your earrings are dazzling; I only wish I had a long neck. I particularly liked the Vintage Romantic pair. Good luck with your endeavour.

What a fantastic question- although lately nothing has felt right! I suppose I should be looking on the brighter side and focusing on what is going right! :) Good- so here is my list!
I love living south of downtown- I feel close enough to the city, but far enough that I don't feel the city. I just graduated and it feels good! I have many friends- some close- others are great aquaintances that we share a quick laugh through out the day. I have husband committed to us, and who loves me unconditionally. I am on my way to a great career- even though I am just starting- it's only going to get better from here! I am happy with my small family: me my husband and our 2 dogs. :) knowing that my savior loves me- and he knows ME. There are times in my life that I know I am supposed to be where I am for a reason- and I love finding out why!

What is right for me: Being mom to my two girls Ashley and Andrea, being wife, friend and collaborator to and with Kirk, and working as a public servant in local government (love my job!!!). What has become right has fulfilled my aspirations in family and career, including peace, happiness, harmony, security, and wisdom.

Thanks Jonathan. Great interview and blog.
As for the thought congestion, let intuition slice through it.
Now, let's see if I can take my own advice. :-)

My financial situation. My family. My cooking skills (LOL). My interpersonal relationships. My personal growth-I'm learning more and more each day to own, accept and express my feelings.

My intuition.
Leading intimate creativity workshops in my studio.
Having a lover who is as crazy dedicated to Halloween as I am.

What's right: me letting go and waking up continuously. The way the light comes in the window in the middle of the night. Knowing that the real thing is to love and not get love---the formula is already perfect. How the Santa Ana winds remind me of those moments when I felt content and perfect in childhood, waiting for The Helms Man. That I am hopeful. That I am determined. That I can almost touch my big dream. Caramels from Surfa's. My husband's heart and his willingness to listen and learn and teach. The sweet new angel in our lives--- Super Cooper the Wonder Dog who reminds me how important it is to be genuinely friendly. What's right with my life is that I could continue writing about this subject for quite some time...

Being surrounded by friends. Having the means to travel to amazing places. Feeling supported by my mom. Making a commitment to eat well and work out everyday. Feeling more at peace everyday. Having time to read. Being able to sleep well again. Feeling more at peace everyday.

I have this feeling, deep down, residing in this very wonderful place, somewhere that keeps me sane beyond reason, that my helter-skelter existence is all part of the plan, and that all the things I do, all my odd jobs, the random chances i take, activities I choose to be a part of, never entirely sure why, or if they we're the right decisions... they are all kind of in this way I can't really see at the moment, integral parts of something that will unfold masterfully for the rest of my life. It's all good. It's all right. How's that?

Now I'm going to go back to being skeptical ; )

New friendships being nurtured. A new gym membership that brings opportunity to be more active. Regular time to myself.

My path, being able to see it, feel it...and when I can't, I have finally come to a place where I can surrender to gravity and today. My friends. My health. Outlook and attitude are now parallel with my objectives. Working with C&D. My Styles Statement. Being introduced to JM. Dude. Cheers. Dating again - my "come hither" powers are dialed.

I guess the bottom line is timing, insight and oxygen.

Blogging is right in my life. It is something that I never thought I would enjoy so much. It is just filling up so much in my life that wasn't working. I have also never really had many close friends and one of my goals this year had been to make an effort to be a friend and allow myself to have friends. It's working!

My stable and sturdy job in this unstable and unsturdy economy
My new size 10 body - clothes fit right and I feel better than ever
My new place and learning how to be on my own for the first time and the independence that comes with that

I am transformed and am powerfully expressive in creating a new life, a new world, a new path and new love in every moment I choose to do this.

My sweetheart who is ever loving and patient; who trains me everyday how to have fun and bask in the pleasures of life; who makes me laugh.

The synchronicities around fulfilling my dream to be in the musical "Miss Saigon" (a dream of 19 years):
- That a production happened in my new neighborhood after I moved out of my old place
- My huge closet mirror that my aunt/landlady installed without me asking. I practically have my own one-woman dance floor in my room. It was as if she knew I was going to need it for practicing choreography.
We are showing in 10 days!

My roommate/landlady Aunt who wants me to stay with her so that I can save what I would be paying for rent for a downpayment for a house; who slices up mangoes for me and puts them in ziploc bags ready for me to take to work for lunch; who does my laundry because I don't have time as I'm always at rehearsals.

My chiropractor Dr. Kim (www.drkimsf.com) who makes sure my body is aligned so I can continue fulfilling my dreams.

My colors! I got them done by www.jenniferbutlercolor.com. And now I love shopping. That's a miracle for someone like me who abhorred it!

PAX Programs (www.understandmen.com). That I can love and appreciate the men in my life just the way they are and just the way they're not.

Being unmarried and not having kids at this moment of my life is right for me =^) What a relief that my biological clock has been silenced by other forms of creative outlets (such as theater).

My girlfriends are right for me and my guy friends as well. Especially the one who leaves me voicemail messages of Spanish serenades.

Harbin hot springs is right for me.

That I earn enough for all the good things I want in life.

No matter what happens, good or bad my outlook is what keeps everything together. I purposefully seek out the positive. I found once my perspective changed, my entire outlook became brighter.

I wanted to say, "Today, this is not so easy to answer." Then, as I wrote those words, I actually felt the heaviness lifting. I'm here and that has to be what's right - right?

My journey right now...it's taking a while. Longer than I'd like, but having three kids doesn't leave much time for spiritual discovery sometimes. Reading, writing, drawing, meditating (even if it's a during a dreamy nap) all are bringing my closer to where I want to be.
Being a Mom is perfect for me right now, absolutely perfect...that birngs me great peace and reassurance at times when I feel I am not doing as much as I'd like in other areas.

Where I live - feels like home. My practical new budget - knowledge is power. Income that allows me to enjoy life and invest in myself. A steady job that I've carved out for myself with hard work and a little sacrifice. A constant desire to incorporate exercise into my life and the discipline to do it. The support of family and friends. The ability to create new opportunities and the guts to name new desires.
A few things :)
