Awe shucks River 💗 I really appreciate the love!!! 😭

These last few years have been so full; equal parts beauty and eviscerating new awarenesses... Dealing with some stability being swept from under my feet due to weird Hive politics solidified a sort of bitterness in me that had been brewing steadily... Hive always felt like an oasis to me because of the good things you mentioned, it hurt to be disillusioned by life from so many angles all at once. It's sad that BS happens to so many of us here; I'm bummed to hear that Hive's less cool side has affected you as well. Without the friendships formed here I think the whole thing would fall apart.

On a more positive note: LOVE! Bizarre ideologies, living in a country always in the middle of one conflict or another, annoyances over visas and other arbitrary guidelines... It always has been, and always will be worth it to me to follow my heart. Whatever goes on in around us, Yaz is my paradise.

I'm not much of a hugger, but your words made me wish I could hug you. Thanks for the realness in what you said, I've always admired that you're not afraid to say the things that many try not to touch here 😎💚
