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 want to leave my review because I once searched for information on forums and was hesitant about whether to seek her out. I turned to Daria when I was going through a difficult time in my life—problems in love, constant worry, and a loss of energy. We communicated via WhatsApp, and she gave me a reading, detailing my past and present very accurately, and a lot of it matched. Then she told me there was something negative that was preventing me from living a normal life and building relationships. She worked with me and gave me recommendations. Afterward, I really felt better—both mentally and physically. My relationship also improved. I am very grateful to her for her help and support. She is a good, honest person.

Anya and I had been friends for 14 years. Since we went to school together. She was at our house, we went to the country together, drank wine in the kitchen and shared the most personal things. And then... my husband left for her. I didn't even understand at first. Anya became strange, distant. And then he said: "We love each other. I'm sorry, Inna." I couldn't breathe. I couldn't speak. I just sat and stared at the wall. My heart wasn't beating. The children asked: "Where is dad?" - and I didn't know what to answer. Lily appeared as a sign. I saw her page by chance. I just clicked. And when she looked at the situation, she said: "This is not love. This is dirty envy and influence. We will take this off. He will come back if you are ready to forgive." I doubted. I was angry. Broken. But I agreed. And you know what? Two weeks later, he was on his knees. He said that he had gone crazy, that he was living someone else's life. He cried, held my hand. I forgave. Yes. Not right away. But I forgave. For the sake of the children. For our sake. And the "friend" was left with nothing. Thank you, Lilia. You are not just a clairvoyant. You are a woman with a huge soul. I thank you with all my heart. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433

I never thought I'd turn to a clairvoyant, but life forced me to… After 15 years of marriage, my husband left. He simply left—without explanation, with cold eyes. I didn't know what to do, how to move on. A friend recommended Lilia, and I decided to give it a try. Already during the first consultation, she described everything that had happened, as if she had been with us the whole time. We worked with her for almost a month—prayers, rituals, energy. And then the incredible happened—my husband returned. On his own. Without reproaches, without scandals. Now it's like a second spring for us. Thank you, Lilia, for your gift, for your support, for bringing back not just people, but happiness into the home! Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
