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

Lily gave me back not only my husband, but also the reason to breathe.
I walked to Lilia with trembling hands, afraid to believe that anything could change. But she looked at me as if she saw all my pain at once. The rituals she performed seemed to lift a heavy layer of despair from me. And suddenly, my husband appeared at the door. He stood there, silent, and then said, “I feel bad without you. I tried to forget, but it didn’t work.” I can’t forget that moment. Lilia gave me back not only my husband, but also the reason to breathe. Her phone number is +380638055486, she also has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
Zakhar gave me back the meaning of life and the belief that even from the darkest depths one can emerge into the light.
When my boyfriend left, I didn't know how to move on. I was left alone in New York, and I wasn't prepared for this at all. My heart was breaking with pain, and time was running out. The savings I'd accumulated in Florida were melting like dew in the sun, and I even considered leaving the US to be with my mother in Italy, where she'd lived for the past three years. It seemed all was lost. That's when I stumbled upon the contacts of the magician Zakhar. I was worried about whether he'd be able to see my situation remotely, but distance wasn't a problem for him. My very first conversation with Zakhar amazed me. He saw everything down to the last detail without asking anything. His calm and confidence gave me hope. He said he could help, and I grasped at that straw. Magic... I always thought it was something from movies, but Zakhar showed me that real magic is faith and the ability to channel energy. And a miracle happened! My beloved came back. He realized how much he needed me and that our breakup was a mistake. And then... then he proposed! It was like a dream come true. Today we are married, and every day I thank fate and, of course, Zakhar for our happiness with my beloved. We have a beautiful daughter. Our family is the most precious thing I have. Zakhar gave me back my meaning in life and the belief that even from the darkest depths, you can emerge into the light. I advise you not to despair and don't be shy about asking for help. Zakhar's magician's number is +380954248510. I communicated with him via WhatsApp.

If you don't see the point right now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this.
If you don't see the point now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this. Until recently, I had a family, children, a loved one... And then everything fell apart. I fell ill... in body and soul. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, I was just slowly fading away. And then he left. Quietly. Without explanation. All that remained was emptiness and silence. And the children, who looked at me and didn't understand why Mom wasn't smiling anymore. I thought I wouldn't survive. But one day, I was given Lily's contact information, which helped. I called, almost in disbelief, simply out of hopelessness... And that was the beginning of my comeback. She didn't judge. She didn't promise miracles. She simply helped. Slowly, piece by piece, I began to put myself back together. Strength returned. I began to sleep. The fear went away. Then something happened that I no longer believed in. He came back. He said it was as if he had "seen the light." But even if I hadn't come back, I was already living again. I'm writing this for you, if you're feeling broken-hearted and empty-eyed right now. Please, don't give up. Help is out there. You're not alone. And you will definitely rise again. I don't know how, but it works for Lily, too. She truly has a gift, and I recommend it to you from the bottom of my heart. She's a God-given person. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for a regular call).
