I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1159 - HPUD, HIVE in ALIVE Divies, Plus Double HP-Delegator Payouts Incoming Tomorrow! - Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, September 29, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Tomorrow is shaping up to be quite an eventful Hive day indeed! To start, since it will be the 1st of October, that means that a new HPUD is almost upon us, and although I have fewer HIVE to power up this time around, I'm ready to go to give my HP another little boost. I've noticed a diminished HIVE income over the last two months, so until I am able to increase it, my HPUD powerups may be a bit more modest, though they still very much help, even at their present level. My HPUD powerup tomorrow morning will give me the bump that I need to easily surpass 13,900 Hive Power before the end of the week, which is nifty indeed.

On the We Are Alive Tribe front we have two important and much-anticipated events coming up tomorrow, namely the start of HIVE being distributed in the daily ALIVE dividends, and a doubling of the HIVE payouts to HP delegators, with 10 HIVE being allocated weekly to each. Bjorn confirmed last night that the payout scripts are ready, and with the HIVE already in place, we're a go for tomorrow! Woot!

These two upcoming asset-distribution changes will likely strongly affect our ALIVE token and the economy around it, with a much higher market demand, and a notably increased market price. It might be a good idea to acquire more ALIVE before the price rises too much, just sayin'.

I'm constantly diversifying and growing the Alive Tribe asset income streams, so new assets, and larger quantities of existing assets, will be made available to the community over time. Since our ability to distribute HIVE, and especially at the quantities that we'll be doing it, is presently entirely dependent on the weekly HIVE payouts from our delegation of 20,000+ BEE to @bee.voter, which means if those payments end for some reason, then our HIVE distribution would stop, until another source could be found.

Because of that, I'm always on the lookout, and I'm frequently experimenting, to explore what other comparable options are available and feasible. I don't want our community to depend only on one other project's continuation for important aspects of the Alive Tribe to function properly. Backups and redundancy are a very good thing indeed, and that's on what I'm working.

Yesterday, Monday, after finishing up my Hive tasks by around 12:30PM, I prepared for a session that was schduled for 1:30PM. The session ended up starting at 1PM instead, and we wrapped it up by about 6:15PM, after which I stopped by the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and with that in hand, I headed back to the Flow House to begin my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done somewhat late, a bit after 11:30PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed around 12:15AM. I woke up just after 6AM, 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 this post. It's now just after 11:30AM, 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, straining and blending kefir, collecting more coconut meat and coconut water from several younger coconuts to begin another round of kefir fermentation, and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my October HPUD post tomorrow morning, and the next expression of these posts tomorrow afternoon! 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
