I couldn’t be more blessed.
I shared my story. I received and continue to receive and abundance of love. I no longer hold such a huge secret. And at the end of each day I live on this earth, I know whats to come and that I am loved (as are you) by God.
I am taking it all in. The show itself was what I anticipated. It was done well, and edited as expected. However, I was sad to see some of the key components to my story didn’t make it in, and some over dramatization was added in. I guess that makes it made for tv right? Luckily I have this site to tell all the in’s and out’s of my story. I also had a really good local write-up about me that if you haven’t seen-you should! The two points I wish they had included the most was more details relating to the moments I was in the ambulance (they are my most vivid), and the message of “What have you done for man kind?” that resonates with my soul always. Regardless of the fact it might not have delivered all that I wished it had, I will be forever grateful for being part of such an amazing show.
I am not sure where I am going from here. The next steps are unknown. I woke up sick to my stomach wondering what the universe will give to me next. Luckily it has been a TON of wonderful comments, e-mails, and thoughts. My only intention (besides setting myself free), was to tell this story in hopes it will help others. I truly believe this has already happened.
I do not mind talking about my experience privately. However, I have realized not everyone who has lost someone is open to it. I have already had my inbox filled with “Can you write ____ and tell them your story–it will help them”. The truth is ____ might not be ready to hear what I have to say. When _____ asks –I will answer. Nobody enjoys unsolicited advice, and I am thinking advice about God is even more of a no-no.
While seeing myself on national tv sparked my ego for a moment, I humble myself when reminding myself why I was there. I am no more important than you are for having this experience. I am not loved by God anymore, or perfect. I certainly don’t have all the answers, and I am HUMAN. I have faults, I have sinned, I am just like you. Please don’t mix up my experience as me being more God-loving or knowing then you. It just isn’t true. He is in your heart, as He is in mine.
I am no different then the person I was the day before yesterday. No different then the person I was years ago. I am a child of God. A lover of people. A giver to mankind. All out of my awareness to be God centered.
You are just as blessed, you just have to take the time to look.
Wow Aimee! Congratulations! Your story is amazing and touching. You did an amazing job.
Thanks! 🙂
Just watched ISB&B and thought it was very interesting. My husband and son died in 1998 and I wish I had stronger faith that they are okay. I still feel so sad. It helps to hear about these experiences. Thank you for sharing your story.
I am so sorry for your loss Tamra. It is hard to be here on earth and imagine where the people we love the most are. Please know in my heart of hearts I can tell you that you are NOT living without them. Your husband is with you. One thing the BIO channel did not feature is the ability to talk telepathically over there. This is hand and hand to prayer. When you are in distress I would offer you to take a moment, be still & silent, speak in your mind what you would want to say to your husband or to God, and see what pops into your head. You might be astounded by what you find. I pray you will seek comfort, and find faith that he is ok.
Aimee,
I watched the show last night and your angelic face, voice and story truly touched my heart. I’m always searching for answers as to what awaits us on the other side, but for some reason your story woke something within me. It’s so easy to get lost in the chaos of our world and I really need to work on being more grounded in faith. Thank you for being so brave to make your story public. I am sure the ripple affect will bring good things for all who listened.
Jan, Thank you. Please don’t take my story as a know all. I am still searching. I am still finding my time to be still, and present in the moment. I am still..seeking God actively. Yes I got to go on the otherside, but there is still things I don’t remember, I was so young, and I am still figuring this thing called life out. See! I am in the same boat as you!
Aimee-i see it as such a sign that I saw your experience documented the other night. I have no such experience yet I have been fascinated by it since high school…that I attended in the town next to where you live! More important however, is my recent struggle and search to seek a relationship with God. Your spirituality was palpable. Your truth so evident. I envy what you have found. I still live in a neighboring town..I would love an opportunity to talk to you in person. Is it too much to ask?
Kris thank you so much for your kind words. No need to envy me–I to am still seeking God! Even with my experience and my path to search deeper, my quest is never ending! We are all seekers–my path just looks a bit different than yours! I actually do not live in RI anymore. Although I am open to talk about my experience now I am still figuring out my place in it–as I literally told my story for the first time on that sound stage in DC for the show. I have received many e-mails with varying requests and although I would love to meet all of them, it is simply impossible. That doesn’t mean I am dismissing you–or any one else–I just got figure out a way I can reach people better without sacrificing my everyday life as a Mom & wife.
Thank you Aimee. Im actually right here in CT, down the road. But I understand and wish you continued joy on your journey.
Aimee- really beautiful blog entries that you’ve written! I just read your most recent few entries. With this experience of yours, I couldn’t help but remember the time at Colchester when you had a desire to be on the Real World, one of the first reality TV shows on the air in the late 90’s (before Survivor, even!!). I almost think you knew you wanted to reach a lot of people to share your truth, your experiences, your different perspective in our world. Who knew the Real World would be the dark and depressing show it is now. I think that the universe knew there was a much better use of your 15 minutes of TV fame. 😉
I s there a place where your detailed story can be read or seen?
