I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #743 - My Hive Path of Healing, Self-Actualization, and Wealth Creation - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Friday, August 9, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

There's something about Hive that fit with my personality like a lock and key, which is a big reason that I've been such a buzzy bee here over the past almost 3 years. It's no secret that Hive is an important part of my life, and that I devote many hours each day to what I do here, which is as much for my fellow Hivers as it is for myself.

Hive provided the needed positive and constructive focus in my life, and an important means of expressing myself, during more-challenging times, such as during and after the breakup with my last girlfriend over two years ago. Hive has been an integral part of me healing my repeatedly-broken heart. As I've healed, I've come out of my shell progressively more, growing into new dimensions of myself, and expressing myself in ways that I never imagined that I would.

Not only has Hive, and its beautiful community, assisted me in my healing journey, but also right in line with that, my self-actualization and growth as well. It's because of Hive that I explored and developed a great love for photography, as well as my now ardent passion for money, leveraging and growing assets, and finance. None of this was a reality before Hive. I've learned to put myself, and what I actually think and feel, out there on the Blockchain, without fear of what people will think. I have deep love and care for people, but I'm now also OK if some don't like or agree with me, because I feel much more solid in myself.

Now with the fun and fascinating collaborative work that I'm doing with my dear friend, Badass Botlord @borniet, it feels like what I do on Hive is going to another level of engagement and contribution. Mind you, I still feel like I do nothing compared to the exceptional work that @borniet does. I'm just grateful that we flow so well together in our creative process, and that he appreciates what I offer. Ideas for new projects are bubbling, and the fun is just beginning!

Yesterday, Friday, I left the Flow House, after finishing my Hive tasks, just after 2:30PM, putting my attention first, as I usually do, on straining out and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) first. After kefir, I took walked around the property a bit, and a short way down our jungle road, taking more photos for these posts, and for my entry in the Shadow Hunters Contest. I also spent some time sunbathing on the trampoline in the Peanut Lawn, in the early-evening sun. Yesterday was a more-mellow day, where I didn't focus on land work, but rather on what I felt called to do as I went about my day, which felt good. I need some days just for myself. After sunning on the trampoline, I collected my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, the I made my way back to the Flow House, to dive into my evening round of Hive tasks, and of course, catching up on my notifications. Pretty much as soon as I sat down to work on Hive, Iolanthe texted me, to ask me if I could make her some food in Tutu's, which I paused to go do, returning to the Flow House immediately afterwards, after walking Io to Shiva-Shakti. Although I did have quite a lot of notifications, I was able to finally get through them all by around 12:30AM, heading to bed very soon after. I did sleep well, thankfully, waking up quite late, just before 8:45AM, doing a round of token management, starting on this post, and then getting out of bed just after 9:30AM, to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now just past 1:15PM, so a great 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, hopefully take more photos for these posts, and then land work, probably back in the garden. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's expression of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

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.
