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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Have you ever had one of those days that starts crazy and intense from the very beginning, and only becomes more so as it progresses? Yeah, that's how it is this morning, and I've also had multiple important things that I've needed to get done, both my regular Hive stuff (like this post), and community/land work on the property. On top of that I also have a session with Emily scheduled for 1PM today, though with everything going on, it may have to start a little later. Things have been very challenging and stressful for me in this jungle community over the past few months, and it seems like today is when even more shit is hitting the fan, so to speak.

As always, I'm doing my absolute best to meet my commitments, both on and off Hive, but holy jumping fuckmuffins is today pushing me to my limit. As I've mentioned, I've lived in this off-grid community for over 5.5 years now, and while there have been many challenges, they have been going to a whole new level as of late. It's because of this that I've seriously been considering relocating to somewhere else, though I still have no real idea of where that might be.

I didn't sleep well for most of the night, as had been very common lately, though I did finally get some sleep in the morning. I got a later start than usual because of that, and with everything happening here this morning, my nerves are more than a little frazzled. Although I'm usually able to help, Jo(hanna) is milking the cow alone this morning, since I just have too much to juggle. She was very understanding, for which I'm grateful.

Keeping myself in a calm and peaceful state in the midst of all this is really not easy at all, but I feel reasonably OK, despite everything, very thankfully. This is a big reason that I choose to spend most of my time alone here, as I'm just not willing to let the drama throw me off from what is important, from my commitments, or from my peace of mind. That's a necessary boundary for me.

I honestly don't know how it's all going to play out here, though I'm hoping and praying for awakening, healing, harmony, and peace for everyone around me, myself included. May it be so. I'm well aware that what is happening here is a microcosm of what's occurring on a macroscopic level around the world, and in the collective, now, and I do my best to keep that in mind as I go about my days, but oh my goodness.

Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House around 2PM, once I had finished up my Hive tasks, putting my focus first on taking photos for these posts. With that mostly done (I did take a few more later in the day, too), I did the dry-goods order in Tutu's, and after a short break, I collected a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible leaves for cow-milking food. After a shower, and making myself some food in the Landing, I went to Tutu's to get some food supplies, and ended up making some food for Iolanthe, too, and hanging out with her for a while. Once I left Io at Braja's place, I returned to the Flow House, a little later than usual, to finally get to my Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications. I got everything done by just after 10PM, and after some token management, and checking in on Bastyon and X, I went to bed around 12AM. As I mentioned above, I was only able to get a little sleep in the morning, and while it wasn't much, it helped a lot. I woke up about 8:30AM, feeling far better, 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 11:45AM, so a very good time to end this post, so that I can get to my few important Hive tasks, before preparing for Emily's session. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's iteration 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.
