I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #574 - 2 Years and 5 months on Hive, and Unexpected Sessions! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Thursday, February 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I arrived on the Hive Blockchain exactly 2 years and 5 months ago today, almost two and a half years, which is incredible, especially considering that for most of that time I've been publishing 1-3 posts every single day! Hive's 4-year anniversary is coming up soon, too, on March 20th, which is a big day for the whole Blockchain! I've been here for over 60% of the time that Hive has existed as a separate Blockchain! That's pretty cool!

I'll pass 6,325 HP today, I'm getting close to 247 HBD in Savings, and my reputation will reach 69.15 in a day or so, so my growth here is going fairly well I'd say, and that's not even taking into account growth in other areas, like layer 2 and diesel/liquidity pools, where things are generally also flowing quite well. I build and grow in many places, both on the Blockchain and off, and I leverage what I've grown in one area to create greater growth in another area. This is how I've come to have the assets that I presently have, and how I'll reach both orca and whale levels. This is being done without any fiat investments at all, which I find extremely satisfying.

In my post yesterday, I mentioned that I had two sessions scheduled for next week. There was a misunderstanding, and actually one of those sessions will be this week, Harmony on Saturday, as opposed to next week. She wanted a session ASAP. Melekai also asked me yesterday if I could do some work on her upper back, as she tweaked it a bit, and it was bothering her, so I scheduled a session with her for some focused work for today, after I finish this post and a few essential Hive tasks. So I actually have two sessions this week, today and tomorrow, and so far one scheduled for next week, on Wednesday, with Kula. When sessions start flowing, they really start flowing!

I also planned to lead Sarah through my Energy Exercises today, in the late afternoon, around 3-4PM, which I had forgotten when I scheduled the session with Melekai, which means that I'm going to have to keep my timing pretty tight today, to be able to fit in both. Hopefully I'll be able to get Melekai her session before 1PM, so that I have time to take photos for this post, before I meet up with Sarah for Energy Exercises. That's my goal for today at least. Since Melekai's session is focused work, and not a whole session, I'm pretty sure that I can make it all work.

I left the Flow House yesterday, Thursday, quite a bit earlier than usual, a little before 1PM. The first thing that I did was to strain out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, then drop off a quart of it with Sperry. Once I had that done, I was recruited to help, along with five other people, move the chicken brooder (a large cage, on tall metal legs, with doors at each end, and a metal roof) from the chicken yard over to the front of the Mana Hut (the women's dorm), in preparation for the arrival of new chicks (pun intended 😉). After I helped with that, I took photos for this post, then I went to work in my nursery for a little while. I also brought a wheelbarrow full of plants from my nursery up to the Landing, to stage and then plant in various places.

After getting several more plants in the ground, I took a shower, grabbed my leftover superfood fire coffee, and then headed back to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive tasks and catching up on notifications. I was able to get everything done just before 10PM, which was pretty good timing. Aside from a short round of token management, I checked in on Bastyon, DeSo, and X, and then I went to bed just before 11:15PM, thankfully sleeping well. I woke up around 7:30AM, doing a round or token management, completing @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now just after 11:15AM, so a great time to end this post, so that I can get a few important Hive tasks done before Melekai's session, taking photos for tomorrow's expression of this post, and then Energy Exercises later with Sarah. I do also have to strain out and blend kefir at some point, too. Busy day! I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until tomorrow! Forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2024 Life Goals

1.) Heal my broken heart. 

2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness, and do regular integral practices. 

3.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again. 

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

5.) Continue my work with Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, Bastyon, and other sovereignty-driven technologies, as well as learn relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute. 

6.) Get regular healing sessions with women flowing again. 

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Power 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
