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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

If all goes according to plan, our new ALIVE:HEARTBEAT pool will be created, and ready to accept liquidity, by tomorrow, Sunday. Ben and I will go over the details tomorrow morning, and then one of us will create it. We still haven't discussed creating a pool distribution contract, to enable daily liquidity rewards, but I imagine that we'll be doing that soon as well.

This will be our 3rd 'We Are Alive Tribe' diesel/liquidity pool, soon to compliment our ALIVE:SWAP.HIVE and ALIVE:ALIVEM pools, as a cornerstone of our our community financial framework. It certainly won't be the last, of course, as I already have several other ALIVE pools in mind to create. I intend to bridge ALIVE to various other significant pool networks. That will happen over time.

When choosing a new pool to create, I consider what might be the most helpful, needed, and useful bridges that could be established with other pool networks. I'm still undecided about which pool to create after ALIVE:HEARTBEAT, as there are quite a few good possibilities buzzing around in my mind. Perhaps I should decide on maybe the 5 most exciting possibilities, and then put it to a community vote via a poll.

The ALIVE:HEARTBEAT pool is very much needed, so it takes priority this time around. I'm thinking that our next pool should be one that's either paired with off-chain-linked assets, like SWAP.BTC, SWAP.LTC, or SWAP.BCH, or with tokens that are an intrinsic, inherent, and essential part of Hive or Hive Engine, such as BEE, BEED, or SWAP.HBD. Other community-token pool networks like CENT, CCC, HSBIDAO, LBI, PIMP, and ATX, are also high on my list.

On a somewhat different topic, I noticed yesterday afternoon that I had reached 73 Reputation, which was a rather nice surprise indeed. I'm also getting quite close to 17,200 HP, which I will easily smash by early this coming week. I'm gaining about 125 HP weekly, or almost 500 HP per month, now, with it constantly accelerating. I've still got a long way to go to reach orca level, but I'm getting there more quickly every day.

Yesterday, Friday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little before 2:30PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts. After completing that to my satisfaction, I went into my nursery behind the Landing to find and pull out a few plants that I plan on getting in the ground soon. With that, and a few other small tasks done, I went to the new kitchen to make a batch of one of my special versions of popcorn, and after nibbling on that for a bit, I made myself some more substantial food (a spiced-and-seasoned beef burger, on olive-oil-toasted sourdough, with pepperjack cheese, smoked hot sauce, and Dijon mustard), and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hands, I headed back to the Flow House to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got everything done by a bit after 9PM, and after some asset management, I went to bed by about 11PM. I woke up by just after 7AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the new kitchen, then returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 2PM, so it's an excellent 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 some 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Vote for our @aliveandmmb Witness Node!

This is our collaboratively shared Witness node between the We Are Alive Tribe, and @borniet's and my MMB (Maximum Mutual Benefit) Project, here to build something good for all of us! The higher in the witness ranking we go, the more that we'll be able to grow the We Are Alive Tribe, and the more that we'll be able to share with all of you!

If you appreciate what we're doing with the We Are Alive Tribe, and feel inspired and motivated to lend a hand in building and growing our decentralized community economy and financial framework, which benefits all of us, community conntributions/donations/investments may be sent to our 'We Are Alive Tribe Sovereign Wealth Investment Fund' account, @waat-swif. They're deeply appreciated, and are put to very good use.

Vote for @borniet's @botlord Witness Node!

Bjorn is our badass coder who hosts and manages our (and also Bradley's) community backends, he creates all sorts of useful tools, and he assists people all over the Blockchain constantly. He redefines the term 'busy'!

Vote for @bradleyarrow's Witness Node!

Bradley's tenaciously committed and all-in on Hive for the long haul (just like me!), and the higher his witness goes in the ranking, the higher the weekly BBH and BBHO dividend payouts will be!
