Demonstration on Brighton Beach: when politics divides destinies
On May 9, for many years in a row, New Yorkers gathered on Brighton Beach to remember their relatives and heroes who died during World War II. And on May 9, 2024, when the holiday began to be called the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, the day was overshadowed by a provocative demonstration that caused a storm of emotions among Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents of the area. The events of recent years related to the war in Ukraine have left a deep imprint in the hearts of many, especially those who have roots in both Russia and Ukraine. Ukrainians fled the war, seeking to protect their lives and the future of their families. Russian-speaking residents who find themselves outside of Russia are forced to face circumstances related to their country's participation in the conflict. In this context, holding a demonstration with a red flag, which featured a hammer and sickle, in Brighton, where there is a significant number of Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents, and it is not surprising that Ukrainians stood in Brighton, next to CHASE Bank, with placards and waited for the Russian-speaking delegation. For Ukrainians, and not only others, the red flag is a symbol reminiscent of the terrible consequences of the war in their homeland, while for Russian speakers it can evoke painful memories of the war that divided peoples. Many believe that holding such events on such a day and in such an area of New York only causes pain and discord among residents. However, despite this incident, May 9 remains a symbol of unity and memory, when every family, be it Ukrainian, Russian or any other, remembers its heroes, paying tribute to those who fell in the fight for freedom and peace, stopping fascism. I hope that in the future, the people of Brighton Beach will be able to come together again in peace and harmony, regardless of political differences. Marina Lagunova

Honestly, I came to Lilia on the brink, when everything was falling apart. My husband had cooled off, there were constant fights at home, and it got to the point where he declared, "I want a divorce," and left. I didn't understand what was happening, but it turned out I was under a negative magical influence from someone close to me. Lilia immediately recognized it and removed all the negativity from me. After her work, my husband came home and became warm again. We talk normally, as if another person was there. I feel lighter, as if I've started living again.

A review of a tarot reader and clairvoyant – she speaks the truth
I really appreciate people who don't lie or scare you. Daria is exactly that. She doesn't embellish or tell you what you want to hear. The reading was accurate, to the point. She advised me on which decisions to avoid and where to wait. After talking with her, I felt like everything would fall into place. I'm so grateful. WhatsApp: +1 646 377 9379 or +380996826298
A review of a powerful clairvoyant grandmother. She really helped.
We had constant conflicts in our family: I'd lose my temper, my husband would, and the kids would be capricious for no reason. I felt like something was weighing on us, like a lot of negativity had built up in the house. I'd like to recommend Elizaveta Andreyevna, because after her help, the house felt brighter. She works very delicately, without unnecessary words, but I felt the results immediately—communication became easier, we started laughing more, yelling less, and that heavy energy disappeared. It felt like the house had finally become a home, not a place where people only argue. Contact: +380661542367.
I am extremely grateful to Matrona for her support, participation and help when my faith in happiness had almost faded.
I never thought I'd find myself in this situation. The man I loved more than life itself became a stranger. He was increasingly late, avoided conversation, and then left me for another woman. It was a real blow. I stopped sleeping, eating, and enjoying life. It seemed like happiness was lost forever. In utter despair, I turned to the clairvoyant Matrona. To be honest, I had my doubts at first, but after the first conversation, I felt like I was talking to someone who truly saw much more than others. Matrona described my situation very accurately and told me what was happening in my relationship. After her help, things began to unfold in a surprising way. The man, who hadn't even wanted to talk to me for months, began seeking out contact himself. Gradually, the influence of the other woman faded, and conflicts and misunderstandings ceased. After some time, he returned home. Now we are back together and making plans for the future. After everything I've been through, I especially appreciate every day with the man I love. I am extremely grateful to Matrona for her support, participation, and help when my faith in happiness had almost faded. Her number is +380630228999 Viber/WhatsApp
