I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #969 - Daily ALIVE Divies Set to Start Today, Delegation Rewards Next! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Sunday, March 23, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The first daily dividend payouts for held and staked ALIVE are scheduled to be sent as soon as UTC switches to a new day, so in a very short time, and just remember that both the amounts and the diversity of tokens will increase over time. As I mentioned in my post yesterday, with ALIVE dividend rolling once again, the next order of operation is now to restore weekly reward payouts for AP and HP delegations to our various Alive Tribe accounts. This is also basically ready to start, and on a weekly Thursday cadence.

Choosing Thursdays, and once-per-week payouts, works the best, because we receive our once-weekly HIVE payout for our delegation of 20,000 BEE to @bee.voter as soon as UTC changes to Thursday. Rosyel (@iamraincrystal) also likes the idea of it being done on Thankful Thursday, so it was an easy decision.

The one thing that I'm still mulling over is exactly how much HIVE to allocate each week to HP-delegation payouts. I could easily divert 5 HIVE to be used for delegation payouts, though given the present number of accounts, and the amount of HP that they each have delegated, each one would receive quite a good amount. This would certainly incentivise HP delegations, though my main concern with that is that if we received many large delegations, I couldn't easily keep the payouts amounts at the same level, unless I allocated more HIVE, which would slow the HP growth for @alive.chat and @aliveandthriving. So I'm still considering options here.

I'm doing my best to keep our income in various important assets higher than what we send out as dividends and rewards, which will allow me to strongly bolster our community financial base, and that will then open the door to being able to offer ever-better benefits as time progresses. And that's the idea, to provide ever-increasing benefits and value to our holders, stakers, delegators, and supporters for being a part of the Alive Tribe community.

As I've mentioned previously, I, and we, are working to add in different layers of value for the ALIVE token over time. The first layer was Ben, Rosyel, and myself keeping the Alive Tribe community alive in Erik's absence, and now rebuilding it, the second layer was Bjorn getting our ALIVE tipping bot, @youarealive, up running again, the third layer is the reinitiation of the daily dividend payouts for held and staked ALIVE, and the fourth layer will be to get the weekly delegation reward payouts flowing once again. That's not bad, and as I've said many times, we're just getting started!

Yesterday, Sunday, after I finished up my Hive tasks, I fit in some photography for these posts, before giving Lizzie a mini-session with more focused work, at 1:30PM. After she left (happy and grateful), I got a little more photo-taking in, then I got my machete and collected a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible foliage for cow-milking food. I had intended to strain and blend kefir, but there wasn't sufficient honey, so I held off until it becomes available again. It will hopefully be in by Wednesday. After cow food, I stopped by the Landing to retrieve my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and some food that Lizzie had saved for me, and then I made my way back to the Flow House, to jump into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done by just about 9:45PM, and after some asset management, getting my Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update ready to write the next morning, checking in on Bastyon and Qortal, and a quick scan of my X feed, I went to bed around 11:45PM. I woke up just after 7AM, having slept well, doing more asset management, getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, writing and publishing My 147th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: 3/3 Weekly Goals Achieved, and Good Gains in All Areas, and finally writing this post. It's now just before 1PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I may get to my other few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
