It begins.

As a writer and editor, I know the stories we like to read start with a bang and no backstory. But I need to share a little bit. I'll make it quick:
A year ago, my best friend, my almost 19-year-old son Caden Mustoe, left on an LDS mission to Boston, Mass. I was happy for him but destroyed inside. My marriage was over, so I thought, my health deteriorated to the point that I ended up in the ER a month after he left (so I was sick for Christmas.)

This is where the story starts:
After a few miracles, my life began to shift.
What changed it are these:
Feeling the Spirit by using Law of Attraction clearing
Serving missionaries that have no other support
Forgiving myself and my husband for all the problems we have had together
Finding out I'm an Empath and started using this spiritual gift for good.

This Christmas, I have pushed, prodded, bugged, posted, asked for and did just about everything I could to help missionaries out in the field that have no other support. I've written emails, letters, gotten gifts, loved these kids, found more to love, used being an Empath to strengthen them and now--
I am filled with a love, a peace, a purpose that can only be described as miraculous.
Hubs and I are healing and getting along most of the time pretty darn well.

I am being transformed.

Every Vote Counts--Count Every Vote

It is a few days after Bernie did not get the win we wanted in New York. And yet again, there were problems with voting. There were problems in Brooklyn, his stompin' grounds. There are lawsuits a-plenty. Am I being paranoid to say that something--AGAIN--smells fishy? I refuse to get discouraged. There are many true, honest, good people in place who are not going to stand for this and I consider myself to be one of them. And I know many thousands, tens of thousands, millions who are also insisting that we have honest elections. And I am so grateful. But I have to ask myself, how can winning the election be so important that either it's been handled poorly from stupidity, trying to save a buck (that isn't working out so well now, is it?) or because people have lied, are still lying? Isn't there value in honesty and integrity? Aren't these values a huge part of America? What is the cost of truth in voting? And how can we make sure that EVERY. VOTE

#BWW--This Stands for #Bernie Would Have Won--and He Would Have

On Facebook, they have this, look back and see what's happened in years past thingie. "Your Memories on Facebook." I've enjoyed looking at my memories--what the weather was like it years past, when I've been able to ride because the weather was great, when I had to stay indoors when the weather wasn't. I have some weird posts like, "I have a secret and soon I'll be able to tell it," and I think, JEN, what was the secret??? I also have some, boy, this show I'm in is great, but there's been so many shows I can't remember which one it was. The posts that make me the saddest, though, besides the ones about my son who passed away, are all my hopeful, amazing #Bernie posts. WE HAD THIS, PEOPLE. He was so the clear winner. The rallies! The little bird! The momentum! WE HAD THIS.  Then, as the days go by, my "memories" relate post after post after post of voter tampering, voter fraud, polls closing, registrations getti

The Easiness of Negativity, The Difficulty of Positivity

Today, as the dust settles on Bernie's fantastic victories in ID and UT and the sludge being dragged into the light about whatever it was that happened in Arizona and how can we fix it and will anyone even try to fix it, what I'm seeing is a lot of angry people. We all want to know what happened there--and elsewhere. Is the media not covering Bernie properly? Is Bernie as popular as Hillary? Or more? Things are getting stressed. My Hillary fan friends tell me all the reasons why she is so great, but in a rather vicious and almost superior way. Like, "Oh, you like Bernie. You're one of those. When you get more educated on the facts (meaning, reading the polls that favor Hillary), you'll see." My Bernie friends too are scrambling, looking for stats to prove he will be the president, which I actually think will happen. What troubles me is how easy it is to become negative toward others, even those on the same side (meaning those who share my admiratio
