I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #787 - 3 Years on the Blockchain Today, and an MMB Update - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Sunday, September 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Three years ago Today, September 23 (post date is for yesterday), 2021, I discovered Hive, and created this account on this exceptional Blockchain. As soon as I got here, I focused on learning everything that I possibly could about Hive, and how to succeed here. I was, as I've mentioned countless times, so deeply enthralled and excited by what I found in terms of the technology and potential, that I very soon decided to go all-in for the long haul in this community-based and people-powered Blockchain Ecosystem. The rest, as the saying goes, is history, and I've been giving my all here every day ever since, and I have no plans to stop.

My commitment, determination, and drive has very definitely paid off over the past 3 years, with me accomplishing a great many things in that time, and I'm truly just getting started. To this day I still consider Hive to be one of the top best investments that I've ever made. I treat what I've been building and growing on Hive as my personal business, but one that not only benefits me, but also everyone else on the Blockchain. Maximum Mutual Benefit has been my operating and orienting principle since the beginning, and now with the MMB (Maximum Mutual Benefit) Meta-Project that I'm developing and building with @borniet, this principle is being brought to the whole Hive community in a far greater way.

While @borniet has been super busy in his home and work life over the past few weeks, I was thankfully able to talk with him last night for a bit on Discord, and I got some necessary clarity on the next steps to take on bringing MMB (both the token and the meta-project) to the Hive Ecosystem. Each MMB token will be pegged to, and backed by, the value of 5,000 satoshis (the most basic unit of BTC), which last I checked was roughly $2.50 in fiat-dollar value. Even though BTC's fiat value is far from stable, it's the most stable cryptocurrency around, so it does seem to be a good choice for pegging and backing.

This week I'm going to do my best to sit down and write up a roadmap for the full scope of the MMB Meta-Project, including an exit or descent plan in case our meta-project fails (a failsafe to protect investors), hopefully both from a wider view, and one with more close-up granularity. There are a lot of interconnected parts to take into account, and attempt to fit into a sequential developmental chronology, with some things being able to be implemented alone, while others will need to be implemented together as a unit. @borniet and I will move forward with our plans as time permits, and with lots of communication with the Hive community. We're both sure that y'all will love what we've got cooking!

Yesterday, Sunday, was a pretty Hive-focused day, aside from milking the cow in the morning with Zai. I spent a good bit of time taking photos for these posts, and also a batch for my entry in the Reflection Hunters Contest. I wasn't able to get any for my entry for the Shadow Hunters Contest, but I'll be on the lookout for some good ones today, along with more photos for these posts. I finished my Hive tasks, and catching up on notifications, just a bit after 9PM, after which I spent more time engaging on Waves and Ecency proper, and scanning my X feed. I got a bit distracted with that, so I ended up going to be quite late again, close to 1AM. I didn't get much if any sleep unfortunately, waking up around 6:30AM, doing some token management, writing and publishing My 121st Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: Only One Weekly Goal Reached, but Solid Growth Regardless post, starting on this post, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee.

I shared a great conversation with Sai in the Landing as I prepared my spicy blend on various aspects of the slave matrix, and on information that he had found on X. I suggested that he get himself on X because it is an excellent source for real news, and this morning he was telling me how surprised he was just how much good information he found there. I tried to drink my superfood fire coffee this morning, but I made it too sweet (local, raw honey), so my body wasn't liking it. I ended up giving the rest to Lizzie and Soozi, and I made myself some eggs with veggies and cheese instead, which was much more in line with what I was needing. It's now just after 1:15PM, so a very good time to end this post, so that I can get to my few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first focus on more photography, and then land work. I'm feeling most inspired to weed and clean around the Flow House today, as it needs a bit of tidying up. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's version 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. 

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
