hello everyone!!! ok i finally have some time to sit and write about my expereince!!! i have been waiting all day to post and dont want to keep you guys waiting any longer!!!!
so tuesday morning i wake up early to write John a letter. I remember some people at the workshop had did that and handed him their letters and i thought wow what a perfect idea. i figured that i probably had a chance but didnt want to get my hopes up but my gut told me to write that letter. so after writing my letter i had to go get my passport done since im going to italy in june. (my mom figured to do that since i took the day off from school. hehe) so before the passport thing, we went for breakfast and decided to call Fed Ex because Marcia was sending me SaveJETV lollipops for me to hand out but there was a mistake in my address so it never arrived on monday. so i emailed marcia that night and told her we never got it but if she sent me the confirmation number i could try and track it. thank goodness when we called the package was in the local Fed Ex office and they said we could come and pick it up!!! i was so thrilled!!! so now i had this lovely pink basket of lollipops that marcia sent, and i bought a black shirt and used fabric paint to write on it using the slogans from the volunteer forum. i put on the front "John Edward Television, Life Changing Television, Television Changing Lives" and under that had the website address of SAVEJETV and then on the back it said "I want my JE TV!" the website, and then i wrote how it was a grassroots project to get john on the air. it stood out really well with having the black shirt as a contrast. i was very proud of myself lol i love making art stuff like this!
so its about 11 and we are back at home and my step aunt Lisa arrives because she is coming with us. and then im running around my house trying to get everything and also doing last minute emails to marcia and pam. so we finally leave and now we are headed to Monica's house (bratgirl). so the 4 of us are on the road and we are having just a lovely time in the car. it was my mom's first time driving thru NYC--we never drive there we always take the train! so that was a new expereince for her. traffic really wasnt bad the whole way and we got to the hotel at around 2:45. so we sat around on some couches and then i went off to check out where we would be and i could tell there were some people for JE so i politely went up to them and starting talking to them and told them about the petition. they really liked the lollipops!! that was such a perfect idea! then this one woman comes up to me and she is like "aren't you related to john edward?" im like no i wish i was! lol so then i went up to the main loby desk and this nice young british guy was talking to me because i asked him how to get to the ballroom. hes like "you're going to the John Edward seminar?" im like yes how could you tell hes like im psychic! i laughed because obviously he read my shirt lol
so then i came back down and the 4 of us just relaxed on the couches. whenever i would see people with their bridges magazines i would go up to them and give them a lollipop and flyer. the majority of them were shocked to find out that CO was cancelled. there were even a few of them who already signed the petition. one lady said she heard about it in Hawaii so good job Phigalilly (u did go to hawaii right? lol)
so at 4 we had lunch at this delicious restaurant. it was just so nice and relaxing. then my mom spots Sandy and Lou (chargeit2him & hubby) and we say hello! when we were done with dinner it was time to go up and get our seats since the door opened at 5:30. boy was it so much calmer for this seminar! you can really tell the difference between a small one and the larger ones. there was no line at all since you checked in with the ladies who had your name on the list. and then they stamped your hand with a purple stamp that says "JE" and boom your in!
so we wanted to sit in the front and at the time i didnt see where sandy and lou were so we sat in the 3rd row on the left side of the room. monica and i sat together and my mom and lisa sat behind us. it wasnt til after did i understand why that was supposed to happen. i witnessed the true meaning of "you're meant to sit with the people around you" oh so true!!
so after i got myself situated i took my basket in one hand, flyers in the other and i just went around the room handing out lollipops and flyers. i really had a lot of fun explaining how i am a part of johnedwardfriends and that we are not affliated with JE and that we have a petition going on to put john back on the air. it was cool how i would go to maybe 3 people at a time and then their whole section of people would stop talking and look at me!! so i would walk all around the room and talk about the petition and hand out the pops. and normally i am a very shy person so this was a big thing for me, but i was very proud of myself because i was practicing my leadership skills that i learned at this leadership camp last summer and it really reminded me of that. everyone was really friendly and they all seemed like they would sign. so hopefully our numbers will be going up lol i only had a few lollipops left which was really good. i had just enough. i printed way more flyers than i needed so if anyone wants any that are already copied i have plenty so feel free to email me and i can send you them via snailmail.
oh and before the show started i met Stace7 and also Missurfoot (she's new to our boards so Welcome!!!) but yes it was a pleasure to meet both of you and please feel free to e-mail me!
so then my mom comes over and she is like we should give your letter to Carol (she works for john..i think she plans his events and stuff, right?) so we go up to her and she is just the most friendliest lady ever!! actually she remembered me! she was like your Amy! im like omg how did you know that!! i believe she said she remembered me from the nov workshop and also from AC. i was flattered! so i asked her if she would give this letter to him and she said she would!! so i really hope she did give it to him. she seems like a very trustworthy lady. she really liked my shirt! so then we just started talking and i told her how much he has changed my life and she said she's always told him he should do something for kids and she said she's going to try to do something like that. so i thought that was cool! and i asked her if there was any news about the retreat and she said they still dont have a set location yet and that it will be a while. she took a lollipop too. so i really hope she delivered my letter to him.
so after that i did a little more walking around but it was getting closer to 7pm so i sat in my seat and meditated for a few minutes. and john came out the door right next to me and Monica!! i mean im talking it was really close! i was like holy jesus!! and there he was on stage and he was very humorous as always! so he gets out there and talks for a little but he didnt spend too much time explaining about the entire process like he usually does when theres a large crowd. but i think the majority of the people there knows the work that he does and have probably been to a seminar before. so he got right to work. i was just so happy!!! i didnt take many notes in the beginning only because i didnt want to miss out on this beautiful expereince. i remember parts of the readings. i know the first family had some funny expereinces. it was their grandma coming thru and they played tricks on her in the hospital--something about she would always want her pills but instead they filled the bottles with dots candy and it was this big family inside joke. and something about her night coats how they would rip the pockets. it was very funny. and then i think that family brought thru someone else's family. that was one of the things i noticed thru out the night that it seemed like everyone who was coming thru to John opened the door for someone else. and the one thing john mentioned in the beginning was about resonance and how tonight there would be readings for one family, but you could validate it too in some way. i found that to be right on the money!
he took a short break, and then answered a few questions and got right back into readings. then he started reading Sandy and Lou and i was ever so happy for them!!! i just had a feeling that they would get a reading. so i immediately started taking notes which i posted on Sandy's thread. i was so excited for them and still am!
oh wait a second i remember something else in the beginning!!! silly me. im still like in a whirl-a-wind about the whole expereince!!! so john comes over to our section and he starts pointing in my mom's direction. i swear on my life that he looked at me--we made eye contact. but the woman 2 rows behind could validate some of the information but not all of it, while im sitting there jotting down the notes because it made a lot of sense.
the first thing he said was "I have 2 younger energies here" no one is saying anything. he starts pointing at my mom then says maybe a few rows behind her. then we made eye contact. some more silence and he walks a little closer and then he said it could be a miscarriage. now my mom had 2 miscarriages and ive before we got there i said a prayer to them to come thru. because ive always felt a connection to them and i always say prayers for them and when i always watch crossing over he always seems to get the rocking of the babies and i always hoped if i ever had a reading that they would come thru. so he keeps saying i have 2 younger energies and i just have this feeling that it was my siblings. so then he goes on to say and there is a father figure he passes 1-2-3, snaps his fingers, and my step grandfather who i knew very well died of a heart attack 123. and then he said again i have an older male he dies sudden. then he goes on to say i have a Louis (Louis was his brother who died a few years back. i remember him at family parties.sweet guy) and then he goes on to say and the 12th of the month has significance--now the 12th was the birthdate of my Poppy who i was extremely close to. then he said and i have a grandma here and she says someone took care of her, and they lived with her. well last 3 years of my grandmother's life my dad took care of her and lived with my grandparents. even towards the end they hired this woman to help care for her. then he says again i have gradpa who has passed and theres also an Anthony. now anthony is my great uncle who passed in my dad's arms 20 years ago. he also died of a heart attack. and my theory that it really was him was his wife recently passed in the beginning of the month. and the day of her funeral was the day i called in for tickets and got them. as i was saying a prayer to her at the last viewing at the funeral home i said to her in my head please help me get these tickets--and what would youknow i get thru. so maybe it was her way of validating to me that she heard me? then he said theres 3 roses for 1 month and that is very true i know for sure July there are 3 deaths all in a short period of time and i think that also happened in another month too. then he said theres definitely a catholic backround. and someone has a rosary connected to A. just this passed sunday at church, i bought these wooden rosary beeds that were from Bethlehem and ive been telling myself i need to get back into saying the rosary. and my name is Amy so could that be a connection?? now this woman who he was talking to couldnt validate all of that information, so do you think that this was a Me 2 case? so this morning as i was praying before i left the house, i said to my siblings on the otherside and to my poppy and nanny i was like "send me a sign that i know it was you guys for that one reading" now with them they always send me pennies as ive talked about in previous posts.
so i park my car and as im telling my brother about the seminar i find this penny. im like thinking in my head to them "ok, is this really from you or just a coincidence? as im walking up the walk way to enter my school there is a penny sitting there and i pick it up and im like wow that was quick! so i was convinced then. but they took it one step further. im walking a few inches more and there is another penny!!! and i keep walking and i find another penny!!!! a total of 4 pennies in less than 5 minutes and i specifically asked the 4 of them to send me a sign and i get one from each of them!! isnt that wild! so that just validates for me that it was them. oh and before when my mom came home from work i was in the computer room telling her the story and as im telling her about the pennies the computer from across the room makes this noise--and yet it was turned off. she looks at me and goes "need i say more?"
so i think that was their way of telling me it was them.
ok well my story is not finished because I have not gotten to the part about my mom's reading!!!! but i didnt realize how late it is!! ohhh and i also have to tell you guys how i aksed him my question and other things he said!
so i hope you have enjoyed the first half of my posting. i will post more when im home from school and lacrosse practice tomorrow!!! god bless
