I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #664 - 2 Years, 8 Months on the Blockchain, and HP Delegation Doubling - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Wednesday, May 22, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

As of today, Thursday, May 23rd (post date is for yesterday), I've been on this incredible Blockchain for 2 years and 8 months. It's wild how quickly time goes, and that I've been here for almost 3 years now. Just wow.

I haven't done badly for myself in my time here. As it stands in this moment, I'm just under 30 away from 6,900 HP, my reputation is at the cusp of 69.6, and I'm about to break 280 HBD in Savings, so quite good indeed. I do wish that I had realized the magic of compounding interest and exponential growth as soon as I arrived, and that I began putting every bit of HBD that I received into Savings from the very start.

In recent posts I mentioned the fact that I had temporarily recalled my HP delegations to @thisisawesome and @youarealive, until Erik is able to be more active on the Blockchain once again. Within the hour both delegations will completely return to my account (2x285.983 HP), and I will redelegate them to two community curation accounts to which I'm already delegation, to effectively double their delegation amounts, so from 285.983 to 571.966 HP each. My plan is to begin doubling up my delegations first on those accounts which provide higher-value, yet more-slowly-accruing, assets.

With that in mind, the community curation accounts to which I'll be doubling my HP delegations today are @lasort and @brofi, which provide SORT and BRO tokens. After enough HP accumulates once again on my account, or if I happen to recall another delegation, the next account in line for delegation doubling will be @eds-vote. With this methodology, I'll be doubling the amount that I receive of these higher-value and slowly-accruing tokens each day or week. I'll continue going down my list of delegations, doubling them up one at a time (usually), until they are all at the same doubled amount of HP delegated. Once I reach that point, then I'll begin another round of doubling the delegations, starting again with @lasort, @brofi, @eds-vote, and contínuing down the list, until all accounts are at the new amount once more, which will be effectively quadruple the original delegated HP. I will likely add or re-add accounts to my list of delegations, which will be started with the lowest-common-denominator delegation amount. There does seem to be an art and a science to delegating Hive Power, and I'm in the process learning it, and adjusting, tweaking, and refining as I go.

Yesterday, Wednesday, after finishing up my Hive tasks, I left the Flow House just after 2PM, straining out and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) first, as I usually do. Even though the weather was cloudy and gray most of the day, I was still able to get a few photos taken for these posts. After kefir and photos, I worked with Ano again for a few more hours on putting up fencing around the new cow pasture. I actually worked with him twice, split between a short break, the first round being finishing up on the fencing, and the second being collecting and putting up cages around the trees (cinnamon, allspice, pili-pili nut, and Malabar chestnut) that I had planted in the cow pasture. We got all but two trees protected, with the last two scheduled to be done today. After work, I took a shower, made myself some food in the Landing, then I headed back to the Flow House, to jump into my evening round of Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications. I got everything done on Hive just before 10PM again, and after scanning my Bastyon and X feeds, I went to bed just after 12AM. I did very thankfully sleep well, waking up around 8AM, doing a round of token management, starting on this post, then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now just before 11:30AM, so a marvelous time to end this post, so that I may get to my few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first strain out and blend kefir, take more photos for these posts (I've been falling behind with all the rainy, cloudy, and gray weather), and then land work. I deeply appreciate y'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.

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
