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.

I am grateful to her with all my heart.

I never thought that I would find myself in a situation where I would need someone's advice on my personal life. I always thought that I could handle it myself. But at some point, it was as if a wall had grown between me and my wife. We didn't understand each other, and quarrels became daily. There was coldness in the house, and emptiness in my soul. Turning to Lilya was, frankly speaking, a spontaneous decision. But, as it turned out, the best one. With her, I began to see things that I had simply not noticed before. I began to hear my wife differently. And most importantly, I began to change myself. Lilya didn't push or impose, but gently and accurately guided me. Today, we have "us" again. And for this, I am grateful to her with all my heart. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)
 

A tribute about Matrona - the woman who turned my heart and turned my head

A little about Matrona - the woman who turned my heart and turned my man. I never thought that I could be like this... The man with whom we have passed so many rocks at once, changing in rapture... becoming a stranger, cold. And then just drink. Having lost your empty home and heart, break into friends. I burst into tears at night, caught myself in my thoughts, and I can no longer feel the truth. It seemed to me that life was over. For the joy of someone I knew, I ran to Matronya. Honestly, I left through the fog, without hope, just to listen to me. If only I could see those warm, deep eyes that could pierce my soul... I realized that I didn’t come for nothing. Vaughn said that she felt in my homeland that there were no ties between us and the man, he was simply overwhelmed by the dark image and someone else’s influx. The matron performed the ceremony. That evening I cried, and washed away everything that had accumulated in my soul over many months. And then the changes began. Lightness at the beginning, then a ringing sound from the man. His voice is trembling... He said that he can do it, that he wants to straighten everything out. A few days later I turned home. Just taking my hands and whispering: “Probach. I realized that I can’t live without you.” That’s why I’m dear to the Matrona of God. She turned not just a person... she turned the sense of life, warmth, and faith into wonder. Matrona is a person with a heavenly gift, a kind heart and a great soul. Dear Matrono, you have become a dear to me. I thank you for those who turned their love back, for I have already mourned the strength and the light will never go out. You will lose my heart forever. ЇЇ number +380630228999 viber/whatsapp
 

Review of a clairvoyant

I want to leave my feedback because I myself have been looking for a clairvoyant for a long time who really sees and doesn't just tell "general phrases". I contacted a woman, I won't write her name so as not to harm, but I will leave her number - +16463779379. She told my fortune with Tarot, and everything she said came true literally a month later. She helped me get my loved one back, told me why he left and who interfered. She did a cleansing, removed the negativity and put up protection. Honestly - after that everything started to get better. He himself started writing, inviting me to meet. Now we are together again, as before. I am very grateful to her!
 

I am very grateful to Marfa for her help, wisdom, and sincere attitude. She's not just a fortune teller, but a person with a true gift and a kind heart. I recommend her to anyone who's confused or lost hope; Marfa really does help! I'll leave her number a

I'd like to share my experience of turning to the fortune teller Marfa. Honestly, I went to her out of desperation; my relationship with my husband was crumbling before my eyes. He had grown cold and distant, and there were constant arguments and misunderstandings in the house. A friend recommended Marfa, saying she truly sees everything for herself and doesn't force anything unnecessary on anyone. Indeed, as soon as I went to see her, Marfa immediately explained everything herself! I didn't need a single unnecessary hint from her. She accurately described what was happening in the family, what was on my husband's mind, and even mentioned details no one else knew. This truly surprised me and inspired confidence. Marfa explained why this had happened, what was hindering our mutual understanding, and suggested harmonizing our relationship. She did everything very carefully, kindly, and without pressure. Within a couple of weeks, I began to notice changes: my husband began calling, asking how I was, then he started coming home, and he became softer and more caring. Now there's peace, warmth, and respect between us again, as if everything has been renewed. I'm so grateful to Marfa for her help, wisdom, and sincere attitude. She's not just a fortune teller, but a person with a true gift and a kind heart. I recommend her to anyone who's confused or lost hope; Marfa really does help! I'll leave her number: +380931150260, Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram.
