My first post in the #naturalmedicine tag was around a year and a half ago now. I remember my first comment from what have become the LOTUS Curators went something like "great, now get your ass over to discord and join our community! Love, 
Hive account@riverflows 💚"
I didn't know then, or for a while afterwards, that Hive account@riverflows had organized 
Hive account@naturalmedicine. I just thought she was another one of the awesome active people in the sprouting steem community. When I found out, her energy made sense.
Through my own process of becoming active in NM (even in my recent inactivity), Hive account@riverflows' drive for the community and it's natural message and direction has been intensely clear. She's an easy person to follow, likely because she follows a code even bigger than herself. I couldn't imagine a better woman to form what I believe is the best online community.
Hive account@riverflows isn't the glue that's held these people together. She's the gravity that drew them. Whatever force it is that guides her is the yew pitch that others have felt as well. The whole system she's drawn together of meditators, yogis, herbalists, gardeners, and artists encompasses a natural life that so many seek.
Thank you Kylie, for all you've done here, basically creating the group that keeps myself and many others coming back to this platform. Your work is great and appreciated, and I'm glad your handiwork is here, and I'm glad you are here. Your river truly flows, deep and winding, all through this community.
💚
Nate
