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

Feedback on fortune telling – everything came true!
I never believed in cards before, but after talking to one woman, my opinion changed. She described my current situation very accurately, even though I barely told her anything. I said there would be problems at work, and... three days later, I was told I was being laid off. But she helped me react correctly and even suggested what to do next. I highly recommend her – here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379.
When my husband and I were on the brink of divorce, I didn't believe there was a chance to get it all back. But Lilia isn't just a psychologist; she's a true master of her craft! Thanks to her, we were able to not only save our family but also become even closer. My husband became more attentive, and I learned to be more open about my feelings. Thank you, Lilia, you saved our relationship! I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).

My husband and I divorced. I tried to let it all go, but my heart was breaking. He started living with someone else, and I suffered in silence. I couldn't sleep at night, praying. I stumbled across Lilia's page by chance, and it was as if an inner voice said, "Contact me." So I wrote. She immediately said, "This isn't the end. You haven't let him go, and he hasn't let you go either." Everything she did was silent, without fuss or promises, but a month later he returned. He just showed up. And we started all over again. Thank you, Lilia, for your faith, for your support, and for being there. Contacts +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
I have three children. When my husband left, I was left alone with them. He went to a young girl, said he was tired. Lilya helped me understand what was happening. She explained that there is energy manipulation, and suggested a ritual. Honestly, I did not know what to expect. But there was a result - after 2 weeks he began to communicate with the eldest son, then he came to the birthday of the youngest ... and stayed. Now we go to a family psychologist, he regrets what happened. I know that without Lily's help we would not be together.
