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'm happy to announce that we now have sufficent liquid BEE to cover our portion of the pool-creation fee for our upcoming ALIVE:LBI liquidity pool with @lbi-token, and it's looking like we'll be able to get the pool created and up and running in about a day or two. This is very good news indeed, because LBI is an excellent project and token that I'm happy to support, and it builds another on-and-off ramp for both of our tokens.
I'm saving up a bit of SWAP.HIVE on my account to acquire some LBI to add some initial liquidity into our soon-to-be ALIVE:LBI pool, and I'll try to do so on @aliveandthriving as well, though we don't have much SWAP.HIVE to spare currently, so that will be a bit slower. Once the pool is created, and we're able to get a fair bit of liquidity into it, my two primary focuses will be my ongoing endeavor to rebuild the We Are Alive Tribe's lost HIVE-income streams, and to bring the market price of ALIVE back up.
Unfortunately the market price of ALIVE is directly connected to the HIVE that we distributed in our daily ALIVE dividends, and just as I figured would happen after pausing them, the market price of ALIVE is falling notably. That hurts, but there's not a whole lot that I can do about it just yet.
The one benefit that came to mind regarding temporarily pausing the distribution of HIVE in our ALIVE dividends is that it does rather quickly separates the people who actually appreciate and love the We Are Alive Tribe and our tokens, and who are a consistently-supportive and engaged members of our community, from those that have only been holding ALIVE because of the daily HIVE payments, so exclusively for profit. I would so much prefer that our tokens are held and staked by people who actually care about our community, not simply to bleed us dry, with no reciprocity.
I'm a little concerned that the market price of ALIVE will drop too far before I'm able to reboot sending out HIVE in our ALIVE dividends. I'll be periodically buying what I can off the market, but I'll be using investment liquidity, which is from ideal. I'd buy all the ALIVE off the market if I had enough SWAP.HIVE, but I can't do that yet, sadly. ALIVE will be on sale for a bit, it would seem. I'll get the price back up, but it'll take me some time.
Yesterday, Monday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by about 2:30PM, giving my attention to some photography for my posts first, after which I focused on some jungle-community/land work and tasks. My four main tasks of the day were to chop and dump bad/used coconuts at the upper coco bar, go on a round of banana hunting (I found two huge racks) around the property, assist Braja with a small task at her place, and to dig another round of planting holes in the citrus orchard. With all those completed, 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 scan my X fees a bit more, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got through all of my notifications by just after 10PM, and after scanning my X feed for a while more, I went to bed by around 11:15PM. I woke up just before 8AM, having slept well, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, returning to the Flow House to write and publish my Weekly-Hive-Goals-and-Progress Update, and then beginning on this post. It's now just before 1PM, so it's a marvelous 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 manifestation 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.

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I understand your point of view and I think it's important to have an engaged and genuine community.
By focusing incentives on the intrinsic value of the community and not just monetary rewards, a stronger and more loyal group is fostered.
This can help build a more stable, long-term foundation, where members truly value what we're creating together.
Personally, I will remain faithful, accumulating and retaining time, he will prove us right.
I wanted to tell you that I plan to change the theme of the alive.chat contest on Saturdays, there is very little participation, at the moment I am thinking something different, I will let you know when I have something in mind.
With the Friday contest I am very happy, there is not much participation but we have a good amount of votes.

Great job my friend hopefully things will begin to improve soon as for the market it is nearly always the same few accounts selling ALIVE for profit.
Some people are here only to turn a profit and do not really care about the communities they are apart off unfortunately but what can we do it's a free market.
Have the best one bro
