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 7 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

While I am certainly still giving necessary focus to investing, and leveraging and growing assets on my own account, so much of my time, attention, and efforts now are going to doing that for the We Are Alive Tribe, as Ben and I diligently work to build and grow what will become a strong and robust decentralized community economy and financial system. That's a monumental, though also deeply inspiring, motivating, and important undertaking, and one that I, and we, are absolutely determined to bring to fruition.

I'm on a bit of an ASAP time table regarding two aspects of my community asset management, one, getting our weekly HIVE income back into a range where we're gaining more then we're sending out in the ALIVE dividends and to HP delegators, before we exhaust the big chunk of HIVE from our swapped HBD, and two, bringing asset generation and growth on @heartbeatvault01 to a level that can be used to fund asset payouts to token holders. Both have an equally very-high priority, and I'm doing my best with them, as always, though I must admit that I'm a bit concerned about the time frames by which they could be accomplished.

They're both quite huge and daunting endeavors, as there's still so far to go to reach the levels that we need, which is why I'm a little nervous about the timing. That's a big reason that regular personal investments by Ben and myself are so necessary right now, because a lot must be accomplished in quite short amounts of time.

I don't want Ben to have to continue to pay out of his own funds for the HEARTBEAT token distribution any longer than is absolutely necessary, and running out of HIVE before we're able to get our weekly HIVE income back into the green, would not be good at all, as it would mean needing to notably lower the amount of HIVE sent out in the daily ALIVE dividends, and to our HP delegators. I'm going to do everything in my power to get both of these to where they need to be, and as soon as I possibly can.

So yeah, I've certainly got my work cut out for me as the 'We Are Alive Tribe' asset manager. Up until now things have gone pretty smoothly, but now with these new challenges, I'm definitely somewhat outside my comfort zone, and my asset-leveraging-and-growing skills are being tested at a whole new level. I pray that I'm able to accomplish what needs to be done in time. All fingers and toes crossed.

Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my usual Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, as well as my once-weekly thorough asset management, quite late, but just after 4PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts, and to few small tasks on the property, after which I returned to the Flow House quite soon, to begin my evening Hive tasks, once I had made myself some food (mini spiced-and-seasoned beef burgers, on olive-oil-toasted sourdough, with pepperjack and cheddar cheese, and Dijon mustard) in the Landing, and collected my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the the fridge. I got everything done by just before 10PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed by about 11:45PM. I woke up a bit after 7AM, having slept well, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, returning to the Flow House to write and publish my Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update, and then to begin writing this post. It's now just before 1:30PM, so it's quite a good time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, and then on 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2026 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
