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

Lilya is a miracle. My husband has grown cold, withdrawn, and become a stranger. He hasn't physically left, but there's a wall between us. I tried talking, begging, pleading—all to no avail. Lilya said there was an energy drain and outside interference. After the cleansing and working on us as a couple, for the first time in six months, I saw him look at me differently. He started caring and being interested in me like before. He recently said, "I don't know what came over me, but it's like I've woken up." This is all your fault, Lilya. I bow to you.

We were getting ready for the wedding. The hall was booked, the dress was hanging on the closet, the rings were in the box. And a month before the big day, he said, "I'm not sure. I'm leaving." I thought it was a prank. Or stress. But no. He left. To his ex. I stood by the window with the wedding ring in my hand and didn't understand - how? Why? For what? Everyone said, "Then it's not yours." But I knew - it was mine. It was just as if he had lost himself. Lily became a light in the darkness for me. She said, "Your destiny was stolen. But until he gets married, everything can be returned." We performed a ritual for 7 nights. I read spells, cried, fell asleep with his photo. On the 8th day, he wrote, "I can't live without you. Forgive me. I was blind." And a week later, he knelt down and asked me to marry him again. The wedding took place. Later. But for love. Lily, you were there at the most terrible moment of my life. I pray for you. Thank you. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433
