I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #849 - A Busy Sunday Ahead - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, November 23, 2024
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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
It's just before 12PM here, and I'm part way through a quite busy Sunday. Aside from my usual token management and starting on this post, I also got a fair bit more catching up done on my notifications. I milked the cow with Jo(hana) just a short while ago, as well, of course. Now it's time to write this post, before my various other tasks come into my attention.
Once this post, and my few other important Hive tasks are done, I've got to take more photos for these posts, especially considering that I didn't get any yesterday due to uncooperative weather. When photo-taking is done, I need to collect cow-milking food for tomorrow morning, which usually doesn't take too long.
The rest of my work focus today will go to helping my dear friend and neighbor, Lea, with various clearing and prunning tasks on her property, for which I'll bring my machete and a hand saw. I know that she has a guava tree to prune, and a bunch of cane grass to clear, and we'll see what else pops up to do when I'm there.
I don't usually do much work on Sundays, but Lea is a very buzzy bee in her own life, so she doesn't have a lot of free time, which means that I've got to work around her schedule a little bit to make things work. I really wish that it were actually sunny on Sunday, but alas, it's another gray and fairly dreary day to work outside.
I should be done with all my Hive and GaiaYoga tasks by around 2:30PM, which should still give me a fair bit of time to finish all the things that I need to get done over at Lea's. I'll probably return to GYG around sunset, at which point I'll likely make myself some food, and then head back to the Flow House to get to my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. We'll see how it goes!
Yesterday, Saturday, I left the Flow House around 2:30PM, after finishing up my Hive tasks, and although I had planned to focus on some photography for these posts, the weather was very uninspiring for such purposes, so I strained and blended kefir in the Landing instead, then I collected cow-milking food for this morning's milking. The last thing that I did was to transport 3 full propane tanks in a wheelbarrow from Tutu's to the Landing and Power Sharing, to replace those that had run out. With that done, I shared a little food that Soozi had made in the Landing (ground beef, cheese, and marinara sauce), and then I took a nice hot shower (which always hits the spot on a cloudy, gray, and dreary day), before heading back to the Flow House to dive into my evening round of Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done by 10:30PM, and after some token management, a little more engagement on Waves and Ecency proper, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed somewhere around 11:45PM. I woke up around 6:45AM, feeling pretty good, though also feeling that I could have used a bit more sleep. I got my above-mentioned morning Hive tasks done, along with making my superfood fire coffee, and milking the cow with Jo, after I finally got out of bed by around 8:45AM. As soon as I finished milking, I returned to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just after 12:45PM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I may get to my other few important tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to take photos, collect cow food, and then walk over to Lea's property to assist her for a while. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until the next version of this post tomorrow! 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.

I'm always amazed with your life style and the place you live in.
PS: I've been wondering how is it going with your 2024 goals so far for a while.
Thanks a lot, @okarun! Yes, most people can barely imagine it actually...lol! While there are lots and lots of challenges living here, I'm deeply grateful that I do!
Well, I really should have kept them a bit more focused. I expanded them after I originally created them. Presently I can say that I've accomplished a few of them to my satisfaction, but most not to the degree that I'd like. I'll be recreating them near the end of December, this time with fewer, and more focused. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Well I don't blame you. I did set some goals for this year and
I'm not proud of saying thatI can say I didn't accomplish any of them.I appreciate that. All good, the great thing about goals is that we can always begin again. The thing about goals is that they should be achievable stretches. They should also be simple, focused, and few. I choose too many for the year. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
