I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #605 - A New Phone, and a Surprising Gift - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Sunday, March 24, 2024

I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In my post yesterday I mentioned that I was going to town to pick up a new phone at the Cricket store, as the screen on my old phone was beginning to slowly fail, as moisture slowly seeped into the cracks that happened about a month ago. Thankfully my errand went quickly and easily, and I ended up spending a good portion of the rest of my Sunday setting up my new phone, a Motorola G Play 2024, to get it to where I wanted it. It takes me quite a while to set up a new phone, as I have a very particular way that I like things, so that I am able to do what I want in a quick and efficient manner. Sadly the phones from Cricket all have locked bootloaders, so I can't flash my own ROMs or recoveries, which would be far more preferable, but thankfully I'm still able to do most of what I want and need.

I have the phone mostly set up, maybe 70%, but there are definitely still some important apps, UI elements, and functions, that I still need to put in place. It has an excelllent camera, which I used for the first time to take photos for this post. The case from my old phone fit this new one, which is great, except for the camera location, which made me have to cut out a section of the case to accommodate the placement of the lenses. In the end it all ended up working as I intended. This is the first post that I'm writing on it.

This morning, as I was blending my superfood fire coffee down st Tutu's, Melekai gave me a very surprising and wonderful gift, a Vita-Mix blender in excellent condition, that she got from her boyfriend Neil. Vita-Mix are some of the best blenders in the world, and they're usually quite expensive, but she got it from Neil super cheap, and then simply gave it to me, for me to prepare my alchemical healing elixirs that I'm always making. I'm still beside myself with how incredibly kind this was of her. I'll put it in the Landing, so now I won't have to walk to Tutu's (where the blender base is) to blend my superfood fire coffee or my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao combo. Most excellent indeed!

So far I have two sessions scheduled for this week, Sara on Tuesday (tomorrow), and Amelia on Wednesday, and I'm also teaching my Whole Natural Sovereign Divine Humanity class in the Immersion on Friday afternoon, so I've got quite a busy week planned already, and it's only Monday! I still have to sit down and create a general outline of my class on Friday, and I may be doing that with Zai, as he expressed interest yesterday in collaborating on the class with me. I may or may not schedule another session this week, and it's OK with me either way, as I've got quite a lot to do as it is.

Today I have some kale seeds to plant with Melekai, and some ethernet cables to make for Sperry and Souzi, and for Harmony, who requested them. I wear a lot of invisible hats in this jungle community, so requests for my assistance in various domains are very common.

After getting back from town yesterday, aside from devoting a lot of time to setting up my new phone, I also strained out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, made myself some food, got all my Hive tasks done, along with catching up fully on my notifications, and writing and publishing My 95th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: 3/3 Weekly Goals Exceeded, and 6,500 HP Surpassed! post. Yep, I reached and surpassed 6,500 HP yesterday, which is pretty sweet.

After getting my Hive Goals and Progress Update published, and shared across multiple blockchains and platforms, I did some token management, and I scanned my feed on X, before finally going to bed around 1AM, definitely later than I had intended. I didn't sleep very well, again, and I started on another round of token management around 8:30AM, getting out of bed around 9AM to go make my superfood fire coffee, and to take photos for this post, which I wasn't able to do yesterday (I was busy setting up my phone).

It's now just after 12:45PM, so a marvelous time to end this post, so that I can get to a few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first strain out and blend kefir and then land work, beginning with the above-mentioned kale-seed planting and ethernet-cable making. I deeply appreciate you all so very much! Until tomorrow! Forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2024 Life Goals

1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do. 

2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness. 

3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others. 

4.) Dance regularly again.

5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process again. 

 6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.

7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again. 

8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.

9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships. 

10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice. 

11.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon. 

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
