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

I express my deep gratitude to the magician Alexander for his professionalism and effective assistance. His number is +380971792179. When I contacted him, I was living in Germany and couldn't come to an in-person meeting. I messaged him on WhatsApp. Alexander understood my situation – he consulted with me and performed the work remotely. This was no problem for him. He is a compassionate and kind person. A true clairvoyant and a powerful practitioner with a gift from a Higher Power. Even talking to him makes you feel better. The work he does is very effective. I literally felt it even from a distance. But most importantly, his abilities helped me solve a number of problems and bring my husband back. I recommend the magician Alexander to anyone seeking qualified and effective help.

Marfa is more than just a fortune teller. She is a conductor of light.
Martha saved me. I don’t know how to find the right words, because everything I went through is impossible to describe simply. It wasn’t pain... it was devastation. As if everything alive had been burned out inside me. My husband left. He just got up and left, as if he had never loved me. He said he stopped loving me. He said he was tired. And I stood rooted to the spot, with a mug in my hand and couldn’t breathe. After that, the days merged into a black shroud. I didn’t eat, I didn’t sleep. I woke up and didn’t want to wake up. The children asked where dad was, but I just remained silent and died even more. Everything we had was gone. He was with another woman. He lived with her. He laughed with her. And it was as if I had died for him. I didn’t believe in anything. Until I accidentally saw a review about Martha. At first, I brushed it off. But then, in some kind of desperate hysteria, I simply wrote to her. And she answered. From the first words, warmth. Calm. She didn't ask stupid questions. She just said... You haven't lost everything yet. But you're on the edge. And she started working. I don't know how, I don't know what exactly she did, but it got easier with each passing day. I started having dreams where he came back. I started feeling like there was something between us again. Three weeks later, he came back. Himself. Without threats, without shouting. He just came. He fell on his knees and begged for forgiveness. He said that something had happened to him, that it was as if he had woken up. He looked into my eyes as if for the first time. I sobbed like a child. Now he is with us again. With the children. With me. We are learning to live again. And if it weren't for Marfa, I wouldn't be writing this letter. I might not have written anything at all...

I knew he was special. We met at a friend's birthday party, and something sparked between us at first sight. We spent an amazing evening together. And then the night. He was attentive, gentle, real. And in the morning... he just left. Said he'd call. He didn't call. Stopped answering. Disappeared from social media. I cried. Laughed at myself. And then cried again. All my friends kept saying, "Forget it. It was a moment." But I knew it wasn't just like that. It couldn't be a mistake. I wrote to Lilia. Not really believing it. And she said, "Your destinies are tied. But he was tied by another. We'll free him." I did everything: prayers, rituals, and even stopped drinking coffee, as she said. Six days later, he wrote, "I'm sorry. I don't know what happened to me. I was thinking about you all this time." Now we're together. He carries me in his arms. He says he felt like someone was holding him on a chain. Lily, I believe that you are a messenger from above. You brought back my love. You gave me a chance for happiness.

It sounds unrealistic, but Lilya told me the exact date when he would return. He left home in tears, said that he "fell in love." I didn't blame him, but it hurt like crazy. I turned to Lilya, she immediately said that he was taken away deliberately, there was an energetic connection. We had three sessions. And on the 12th day, the day she said, he showed up. He said that he missed me, that everything was not as he thought. A month has passed since then. We are together again, and every day I thank God and Lilya for a second chance.
