I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1438 - 20.1k HP Today, a Need for Centering and Grounding, and a Short Saturday Post - Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Friday, June 26, 2026

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

This post will likely be a short one today. I don't have the necessary focus, bandwidth, or words to write anything very long. My mind and brain feel like they're currently on overload from all that is happening in our world, both what is ever more apparent, and also much of which most people are not yet aware. Everything is accelerating and interconnecting so quickly now, and I'm feeling the need to step back, breathe, center, and ground myself.

I'll likely hit 20,100 Hive Power today, exactly in schedule to when it was expected. That's cool, though with the state and trajectory of Hive as of late, I don't have any real excitement about it. I could say the same about investing, leveraging, and growing assets within the ecosystem as well. Yes, most assets are increasing quite well, but what does even mean if the whole ecosystem continues to fall apart?

I don't even have the mental bandwidth to focus on my tech work with agentic-AI system, blockchains, Linux, or pretty much anything else at the moment. Tectonic shifts are coming exceedingly quickly, and I don't think that I'm ready, even with being aware of, and knowing what I know.

I'm very much feeling the need to recenter in myself, to reground in my body and on the earth, and to meditate, which is something that I haven't done in quite some time. Working with my technology a bit less, or in a more balanced way, also seems important.

I need to get a handle on some of the strong concerns that I have, from information of which I'm aware, especially regarding the impending magnetic pole shift and the micro-nova of our sun. These are extinction-level events that have ended many previous civilizations, and species for that matter. The Great Awakening of humanity, and the Shift of Ages is here, at our doorsteps, now, and I hope and pray with everything that I have for it to go as smoothly and as gently as possible (I cried my eyes out as I typed that). We have a lot of help in this, but this is something of a do of die situation, and the outcome is not guaranteed.

Yesterday, Friday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little before 3PM, focusing first on finishing the preparation of my new batch of medicinal tea collected from the land. That took over an hour, definitely longer than I had hoped, after which I chopped and dumped bad/used coconuts at the upper coco bar, cleaned the water-collection gutter on the side of Wabisabi, harvested a rack do ripe bananas, and cleared another section along the second driveway with my machete. Once all that was completed, I took a shower, made myself some food in Wabisabi, collected my leftover superfood fire coffee and some of my medicinal tea from the fridge, and with those in hands I headed back to the Flow House to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got done with all of my notifications by around 10:30PM, and after scanning my X feed for a bit, I went to bed by 11PM. Sadly I was not able to sleep well at all pretty much the entire night, waking up around 8AM, very much feeling that I needed more sleep, going to make myself an omellete, and to collect my jar of medicinal tea from the fridge, then returning to the Flow House to scan my X feed some more, and to write this post. I also felt the need to lay down on my bed for a short while. It's now just before 1:30PM, so it's a very 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 some photography for my posts, and then on some jungle-community/land work and tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's incarnation 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
