I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1441 - An Update on The We Are Alive Tribe's Liquid BEE for the Creation of the Upcoming ALIVE:LBI Pool - Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, June 29, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I wanted to give a quick update today on the status of the We Are Alive Tribe's holding of liquid BEE that I'm accumulating to cover our half of the pool-creation fee for our upcoming shared ALIVE:LBI pool with @lbi-token. Although this has been progressing steadily on it's own, thanks to the 20.4k+ staked BEE on @aliveandsocial, it wasn't going quite quickly enough, so today I made the decision to speed up the process a bit.

There were two chunks of BEE in the BEE:LEO and SWAP.HIVE:BEE pools on @aliveandthriving that I removed this morning, and given that the market price of LEO has continued to fall, so the longer that we held it, the less it would be worth, I swapped the LEO for BEE. I also swapped a chunk of unallocated liquid POB that we had sitting in the wallet for BEE as well. After that, and sending all liquid BEE from other community accounts, we had a new total of 320.972 liquid BEE, which means that we still have just over 179 liquid BEE to go to get to 500 liquid BEE.

Given that we accumulate approximately 14 liquid BEE per week across all of our accounts (not counting Ben's community accounts), it would still take us almost 13 weeks until we had sufficient BEE to create the pool, which is obviously way too long. With that being the case, I've decided to unstake 200 BEE on @aliveandsocial, that will take almost 6 weeks to fully unstake, and although that still isn't great, it's a heck of a lot better than 13 weeks.

Even though that 200 BEE will take almost 6 weeks to fully unstake, we'll still be gaining a good chunk of liquid BEE every week, so it's likely that it will take a little less time than 6 weeks. If we do get enough liquid BEE before that time, then I'll either stop the unstake part way through, or restake the surplus BEE.

Regenerating the staked BEE on @aliveandsocial back to the original 20.4k+ shouldn't take all that long, so this seems like the best path to take to get the ALIVE:LBI pool created in the shortest amount of time. I'm also considering donating/contributing liquid BEE from my own account, to accelerate the process even more, since I accumulate it fairly quickly as well, usually more than 1 BEE per day. Up until now I've been swapping my liquid BEE for WORKERBEE and staking it, though that can be put on hold for a time, for the community.

Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little after 2PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts. Once I had a nice batch taken, I got my machete and went on a banana hunt around the property, in search of harvestable bananas. Although I didn't find any ripe bananas, I did find and collect two papayas and one large jackfruit (that I needed a ladder to harvest). After my harvesting round, I drove Ano's truck from Tutu's around to the other side of the property, to unload it after the Sunday market. Once I finally had that done, I took a shower, made myself some food in Wabisabi, collected my leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and with those in hands, I headed back to the Flow House to write and publish my Weekly-Hive-Goals-and-Progress Update, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got through all of my notifications by just after 10PM, and I went to bed by about 10:30PM. I woke up just about 7AM, having very thankfully slept well, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee, to make another kickass breakfast, and to collect another jar of my medicinal tea from the fridge, before returning to the Flow House to assess our community BEE holding, and to write this post. It's now just after 12PM, so it's an excellent time to wrap up this post, 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 on some photography for my posts first, and then on some jungle-community/land work and tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my July HPUD post this evening, and the next edition of these posts tomorrow afternoon! 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
