Readings at A World Apart

Hey, everyone! Sorry I haven't written in a while. Been CRAZY BUSY with Christmas and everything, as I'm sure you have been, too. I trust everyone had a great holiday as I did. And New Year's Eve is tomorrow. Can you believe it? What's everyone doing? I hope it's safe and fun, whatever it may be.

Anyway! I'm here to talk about A World Apart which is a new age store in Pennsville, the town where I live. I was in there a little before Christmas visiting the owners and my friend, Tomas, was in there discussing his idea of "Angels Readings" with one of the owners, Eden. I guess I just happened to be there at the right time because no sooner did I say hello was I asked, "Blair, do you want an angel reading?", to which I replied, "Umm, yeah!". Tomas wanted to show Eden how they worked and what to expect and everything so I was the test subject. I sat down in a chair across from Tomas as he took his dowsing rods out of his bag and pointed them at me. He asked me if I believed in angels and what I thought they looked like and to describe them. I did. He then began to talk to my Guardian Angel and ask him questions about my life and myself and my being. My Nana even came through briefly to share her 2 cents. The entire experieince was great. I learned some things about myself and left knowing exactly what I had to do. I also felt a lot closer with myself, if that makes any sense, and felt an over all sense of peace and well being and clarity. I highly recommend these readings, especially with Tomas and AWA. He's an amazing person and it's a great place. To know more, just comment with any questions. I'll be happy to answer them. If you'd like to book one, contact Eden or Tomas at 856-678-2444 or at www.aworldapart.org 

Lady Gaga at the White House

Lady Gaga takes anti-bullying campaign to White House

WASHINGTON — Eccentric pop diva Lady Gaga took her anti-bullying campaign to the White House where she was lauded as a source of strength for many young people who are scared at school.

Her visit follows a White House bullying conference earlier this year, called to mitigate the plight of nearly a third of US schoolchildren, or 13 million students, who are bullied each year, according to official figures.

President Barack Obama was away making a major speech on the economy in Kansas, but Lady Gaga was welcomed to the White House by Valerie Jarrett, one of his most senior political advisers.

“Lady Gaga has described this cause as a personal one — she has said that as a child, she was often picked on for being different,” Jarrett said in a White House blog post.

“I am deeply moved by the way she has used her story, and her success, to inspire young people, and shine the spotlight on important issues.

“Over the last three years, we have seen that when we work together on behalf of human rights, we can accomplish truly amazing things, yet too many young people still remain at risk.”

The “Bad Romance” singer has linked up with the MacArthur Foundation and Harvard University to launch the Born This Way Foundation, which will explore ways to enhance the safety of children at school.

Obama encountered an extravagantly dressed Lady Gaga during a fundraising event in California in September, and ABC News said she brought up bullying with the president during a closed question and answer session.

Lady Gaga told fans in September that she would bring up the case of a 14-year-old New York boy Jamie Rodemeyer, who committed suicide after complaining in an online video that he had been bullied.
