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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

One of the benefits to reading these daily Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry posts is that I'll be sharing We Are Alive Tribe news and updates before we announce them officially, when the core leadership has a general agreement on a particular topic. With that in mind, I'd like to tell you about some of newest things coming down the pike, as we make the Alive Tribe great again, and even better than before.

The first bit of news is that we'll be moving the ALIVE tipping bot, @youarealive, over to tip-summary post format for tip notifications, to align with of the tipping bots under the MMB Project umbrella, @hopelizer, @indeedly, @mmbbot, @thestrider, @weirdly, and @zombiebot, as well as Bradley's @bbhbot. Lots of tipping bots are getting downvoted on their tip replies now, over comment spam, so we're looking to nip this issue in the bud now.

The second item of very good news is that Ben's @heartbeatonhive and @pulsation accounts have officially joined list of those run and managed by the Alive Tribe core leadership. This gives us more assets to leverage and grow, and accounts to fit into the puzzle of what the We Are Alive Tribe is to become. Thank you so very much, @benthomaswwd, your love and commitment for the Alive Tribe is deeply appreciated!

The third tidbit of news is that it is looking like we may be be able to begin the daily dividend payouts for staked ALIVE once again in the very near future, just with a different array of tokens. We have lots of liquid BBH, LOLZ, PEPE, and very soon HIVE as well, so we just about have what we need to get this rolling again. I want to boost the HP on @aliveandthriving and @alive.chat with the weekly income of 50+ HIVE (for a delegation on @aliveandsocial of 20,000+ BEE to @bee.voter) for a few rounds first, before starting to divert some of it to other uses, like @alive.chat prizes and dividend payouts for staked ALIVE, but it will likely be added fairly soon, along with other useful tokens.

Given that both co-creators of the MMB Project, @borniet and me, are also part of the core Alive Tribe leadership, I think it's safe to say that the MMB Project and the We Are Alive Tribe are in collaborative partnership, and for the benefit of all of us. So many amazing pieces are coming together, and falling into place so easefully, and it's an honor, pleasure, and privilege to behold, and to be a part of it. I am so grateful!

Yesterday, Tuesday, I finished up my Hive tasks around 12:45PM, which gave me just enough time to get ready for my session with Emily, who arrived at 1PM. I work with Emily about once per month, though she'd like it to be more frequent. Her session went very well, as they always do, and with her leaving very relaxed and grateful, for which I was equally grateful. Once Emily left, I went to the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, then I headed directly back to the Flow House, to dive into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my overflowing notifications. As has been the usual lately, I wasn't able to catch up fully with them, before I had to make myself go to sleep, way too late, around 1:15AM. Thankfully I slept reasonably well, waking up around 8:30AM, doing some token management, starting on this post, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee, and to milk Daisy with Jo. After milking, I returned to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just after 1PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first focus on some photography for these posts, strain and blend kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao), and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until the next iteration 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
