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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

As I've discussed in various previous posts, I try to keep the percentage of my Hive Power delegations as close to 50% as possible, because I see it as the point of maximum mutual benefit for myself and the Hive community. I review and updates these HP delegations often, sometimes removing delegations when I find that they can be better used elsewhere, symmetrically increasing the delegations when I find them to be very useful, and adding new delegations as I discover other communities curation accounts which provide solid benefits.

Since I just recalled another HP delegation, within 3 days time I'll have chunk of HP to delegate to another community curation account. I keep all my HP delegations uniform, but in two tiers, one being the usual delegation amount (which as of this moment is 290.936 HP), and the other being for double delegations (which presently sits at 581.877 HP). All new delegations start out at the lower tier, and if after some time I find the delegation to be a good investment, I'll upgrade it to the higher, double-delegation tier. If no new community curation accounts appear when it's time to delegate more HP, I'll simply double the delegation of one of the more-useful accounts to which I already have a delegation.

Recently, another community curation account has come into focus for new HP delegation, @visualshots. The supportive Visual Shots Community is made up of both amateur and professional photographers who have a passion for the art of photography. Delegating HP to @visualshots provides daily payouts in HIVE, and seemingly at quite a good rate, which is a big plus. Although I haven't seen details yet, I've also read that the community hosts ongoing photo contests that award winners with HIVE, so this is another plus from me, as I always need more HIVE.

So it would seem that delegating some HP to this community's curation account, and participating in its photo contests, would be a very good idea for me, since I also love photography, and participating in photo contests. I am still looking over how they like posts presented in their community, but I may indeed begin publishing some photography posts there pretty soon.

As my Hive Power continues to grow, I'll have more and more HP to delegate over time, so I'm always on the hunt for other excellent community curation accounts that provide solid benefits to delegators, to put on my list of future delegations. I love that my assets and resources can help support various communities across Hive, and that I receive notable benefits from these investments. Win-win is the way to go!

Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, a bit later than usual, around 2:45PM, and while I had intended to focus on photography for these posts first, the cloudy weather did not help that process, so I strained and blended kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) in the Landing first. When that was completed, I refilled the generator with gas, then I collected a wheelbarrow full of assorted foliage for cow-milking food. The sun did finally make an appearance near sunset, which gave me the opportunity to get several good photos. Since I wanted to get an early start on Hive, I returned to the Flow House a little earlier than usual, to get into my evening round or Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. It was a busy night, with lots of notifications, and in the end I was not able to get through them all before I had to stop just before 12AM, to do a quick round of token management, and then to dive into bed. I didn't sleep great, again, waking up around 7:30AM, doing another round of token management, writing and publishing My 132nd Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: Not So Great on Weekly Goals, but Good Growth and Interesting Developments Nonetheless, and then going to milk the cow with Jo, and to make my superfood fire coffee. As soon as milking and preparing my superfood fire coffee were done, I returned to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just after 1:15PM, so it's a great 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 put my attention on taking more photos for these posts, and then community/land work. 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.

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
