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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Yesterday evening, right on schedule, I past the milestone of 8,800 Hive Power, which is even more nifty because I just reached 8,700 HP last week. HPUD weeks always give me the extra boost that makes that lovely leap possible. At the present progression, I should reach 10,000 HP by the beginning of April, unless of course I'm able to boost it before then that is.
I intend to focus on increasing my HIVE income a bit more this month, which will give me larger HPUD powerups each month to come. Small bits over time add up, and for the past several months now I've consistently pulled in 10+ HIVE per week, so 40+ HIVE per month. Now it's time to open the income faucet a little more. Given that the more HP that we have, the faster it grows, this small increase in weekly HIVE income should accelerate my growth nicely.
One very interesting development has appeared on the horizon with the recent interest expressed, on the part of two women with whom I work in sessions, Sol and Isabelle, of learning about crypto, Hive, and what I do here. They want me to teach them. They've both brought it up multiple times, so I know that they're serious about understanding it, which is an excellent place to begin.
This prospect fascinates me immensely, and the process will very likely entail the creation of Hive accounts for them both. I'll introduce them in these posts, if and when that happens. As the significance of cryptocurrencies move into the spotlight and ever-greater collective awareness, I imagine that this sort of education and onboarding will become a quite regular practice for me. The opportunities on Hive are plentiful, and I'm I'll make sure that those I teach and onboard know about all of them!
Once new people see the marvel that Hive is, and get excited about its potential, the more that they will begin onboarding their friends and family to this extraordinary Blockchain. Hive is a jewel in the crypto world, and it's only a matter of time before its active population begins to grow exponentially. That's why I've been building, growing, leveraging, and saving here for the past 3.25 years, because I know what's coming, and I want a solid base. I think that I've done pretty well for myself in my time on the Blockchain, and the beautiful thing is that this is just the beginning!
Yesterday, Saturday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, giving my attention first to some photography for these posts, and for my entry in the Reflection Hunters Contest, and then assisting Soozi in the Fuschia Phoenix with an internet problem (she has internet issues often, mostly due to her setup). Once that was addressed, I strained and blended kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) in the Landing, and then I grudgingly went to collect a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible foliage for cow-milking food, in the rain. Lots of rain. When that was done, I took a hot shower, stopped by the Landing to get my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and then I made my way back to the Flow House, to get to my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done by around 9PM, which is when I wrote and published My Entry for Reflection Hunters Contest: Round 204 - Rainy-Day Fern Reflections, and after some token management, and a quick scan of my X feed, I went to bed around 11PM. I woke up just after 7AM, still feeling that i needed more sleep, doing more token management, starting on this post, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, and to milk Daisy with Jo. When I had that done, I returned to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just after 11:45AM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to first focus on photography for these posts, and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update tomorrow morning, and the next iteration of this post tomorrow afternoon! 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.

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
