I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #951 - Hive Is My Business, and the Best Job I've Ever Had! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Wednesday, March 5, 2025

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Hive to me is many incredible things rolled into one, engaging my multifaceted, multidimensional, and multifarious nature like no other platform or blockchain ever has. I thrive on Hive. The fact that I treat it as my personal business exemplifies the immense value that I see in it, and it truly is the best (more-than-full-time) job that I've ever had!

This business of Maximum Mutual Benefit for all enthralls me so deeply exactly because it's good for all of us, with our individual success benefiting those around us, and visa-versa. We engage in a dance of lifting each other higher, strengthening our social Blockchain, and creating a chain of trust that directly translates into the value of the assets that we hold in our wallets.

From this perspective the We Are Alive Tribe is our shared business, our collaborative enterprise, where we come together to infuse into it all the threads of brillance that we've found and collected in our time on this bodacious badass Blockchain, weaving them together into a shining example of what we want Hive to be. That's why we give our all, to that, and to everything else that we do on Hive.

We are the links in this social blockchain, so giving our all, and doing our best, is how we keep our link strong, which is important for everyone in the chain, ourselves included. Embodying and being the best expressions of ourselves is the formula for creating a vibrant, dynamic, fun, meaningful, fulfilling, and truly trustworthy Blockchain Ecosystem.

Trust and value are inherently linked in our assets, both those created by others, and those that we create ourselves. Why do we acquire or hold tokens? It's because of the trust that we have in the people, our fellow Hivers, that created them. Nurture trust and value in everything that you do on the Blockchain, and what you build on Hive will thrive as easily as breathing.

Yesterday, Wednesday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, a little after 2:30PM, focusing first on straining and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) in the Landing, taking a few photos, and then working in a group weeding party in the fenced garden next to Kana's place. The garden is a disaster, but we made a good dent in clearing the first section, which is a very good start. We're planning to make weeding and garden care a scheduled weekly chore, as well as to just make it far more consistent and regular. I couldn't work in the garden too long, as I still had to collect cow food, which I did right after wrapping up our weeding. Once cow food was done, I took a shower, made myself some food (spiced and seasoned mini beef patties, with pepper jack cheese, and mixed honey and horseradish mustards) in the Landing, and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hand, I headed back to the Flow House, to get into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I paused that to go attend the community meal down at Tutu's for a short while, after which I returned to the Flow House to get back to Hive. I finished by around 10:45PM, and after some asset management, and trying to resolve my laptop's keyboard lighting not working, I went to bed, way too late, just after 1AM. I woke up just before 8:30AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, doing more asset management, then getting out of bed go to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, before making my way back to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 12:45PM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before preparing for a session at 1:30PM. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my entry for the Shadow Hunters Contest later this evening, and the next version of this post tomorrow! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2025 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

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

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
