I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1151 - 13,800 HP This Week, My 4-Year Hiversary Tomorrow, and Almost 19,000 Blurt Power on Blurt! - Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Sunday, September 21, 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 6 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I crossed the threshold of 13,700 Hive Power last Monday, and with how quickly my HP is growing, I will easily and notably surpass 13,800 Hive Power before the end of this week. My HP growth is continuing to accelerate, which is excellent, though I'm really hoping that it will be enough to reach my year-end goal of 15,000 Hive Power.

My 2025 goals for Hive Power and HBD in Savings are looking like they're both going to be quite close, while I should easily surpass my Reputation goal in another 2 to 3 weeks. I may possibly need to somehow give a bit of help to my HP and/or HBD in Savings, though I'm still not sure of exactly how I'd do that.

Tomorrow, September 23, marks my fourth year since arriving on the Hive Blockchain, which is a notable milestone, especially considering how active I've been (I've never taken a break). It's wild to me that I've been building and growing on Hive for 4 whole years, and that I'm as passionate and all-in as ever. I'm not naive, I definitely see the challenges and problems on Hive (such as abusive downvotes), but I still deeply love and believe in this Blockchain.

Regardless of my love for Hive, I've also expanded onto the Blurt Blockchain, and even in only a few months I've already reached almost 19,000 Blurt Power. Ben (@benthomaswwd) and I were already on Blurt for a while before we recently decided to expand the We Are Alive Tribe onto that Blockchain as well, thus making our beloved community truly multi-blockain. The We Are Alive Tribe on Blurt is growing slowly and steadily, as more Alive Tribe members join us there, and begin publishing posts in our community.

Creating an account on Blurt, and expanding the We Are Alive Tribe there, was a very good decision I'd say, as it provides greater income, asset leveraging opportunities, and community support. Anyone who has not joined us on Blurt yet, I highly recommend that you do so. We'll be actively building and growing the We Are Alive Tribe on both Blockchains, and we warmly invite you to be a part of the fun!

Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, quite early, around 12:30PM, focusing first on some photography for my posts, and straining and blending kefir. When I had those completed, I took a quick asset-management break up at the Flow House, then I went to chop and dump bad/used coconuts at the upper coco bar, and to tidy the area a bit. As soon as I had that done, I got my machete and did more clearing along the second driveway. After clearing another good area, I took a shower, and one more asset-management break at the Flow House, before heading over to my friend Lea's property, to assist her with some clearing and cleaning on her land. Lea is a dear friend, and I'll always help her if I'm able. She paid me for my services in cash, ganja, and some delicious food that she made. When it was time for me to return to GaiaYoga, she decided to walk me out to the road, and once we arrived there, she asked me if I'd like to join her for a walk down our jungle road, which I happily accepted. We walked much farther down the road than I had ever gone before while naked (which I always am), and it felt absolutely wonderful. After we walked back, and said our good-byes, I finally returned to GaiaYoga, and once there, I stopped my the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and then I made my way back to the Flow House, to begin my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I was able to get everything done by just before 10PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed just before 11PM. I woke up around 6AM again (it's kind of become a thing), having slept well, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, then returning to the Flow House to write and publish My 173rd Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: 13,700 HP Surpassed, 13,800 HP This Week, and Big Changes to LOLZ, and then to begin on this post. It's now just after 1:15PM, so it's an excellent time to wrap this up, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's edition of these posts! 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
