I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in a 16-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. 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've noticed that I've been slowly shifting how I do Hive each day. I'm still as committed, determined, and dedicated as ever, but I'm mellowing out a bit in terms of my timing. As you might have noticed, I've also been varying what I post a bit more too. My plant-and-garden post that I made on Saturday, that I meant to publish on Friday, which got to $100, is a good example. It feels really good to get back to that level, and I look forward to more, as I find my unique way of flowing with Hive. I'm a very multifaceted, multidimensional, and multifarious creature, so what I post will always cover a wise range of subjects. I'm just finding my groove in how I post about all the things that fascinate me and that I love.
Hive is very much a domain of self-development and growth. Just by being here, we grow. Or at least we can, as the environment is ripe for it, but it's us that must take advantage of the innumerable opportunities here. We could get into a rut of habitual ways of doing things here, or we could go outside of our comfort zones to explore, experiment, expand, learn, and grow in new directions and ways. After my my breakup I definitely got into a rut. I seem to be slowly coming out of that now.
I have my daily and weekly posts that I do, but I'm playing around with them more now. In other words, I still have my regularity, just with more flexibility and fluidity now. I like that better than a rigid adherence to a time table of when I am supposed to do certain posts. That's not how creativity works.
Today's was a lovely, warm, and sunny Monday out here in the jungle, one filled with community meetings, work on the land, and of course my work on Hive (and Arch Linux, too). I've gotten into the new habit of getting important Hive tasks done before I get out of bed and get distracted, and it's been working quite well.
I had just gotten my superfood fire coffee made when it was time for the Leadership Council Meeting, which took longer than usual because two people, Shakira and Marco, came in for a check-in and update. The meeting ended just before 1:30PM, so notably longer than usual. I was able to finish my Hive catch-up, thankfully, so I left the Flow House again probably around 3PM to go work on the land.
I got two tasks done today. I moved and emptied fourteen five-gallon buckets of well-composted humanure from the composting toilets around durian trees in the Durian Orchard. In total that took me maybe an hour. After that I took a short rest, then got my machete and cleared on the sides of a trail near the Landing that was getting a bit overgrown with giant Guinea grass.
When I finished my machete work, I took a quick shower, then made myself some food (spiced meatballs with sautéed onions, ketuk, and longevity spinach) before our Logistic Meeting at 6:30PM. I timed it well, because the meeting was starting just as I was finishing with preparing my food. This meeting was also a bit long too, ending about 8:30PM.
With that meeting done, I returned to the Flow House to do a little more Hive catch-up, then write and publish a post on how to change our recovery account,
The Critical Importance of a Recovery Account. Once I got that done, which popped into my mind in the moment, without planning, I started writing this post.
So that was my sunny jungle Monday! I hope y'all enjoyed this peek into my world! I'm off to sleep now, as it's fast approaching 1AM! Until tomorrow! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

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! 😁🙏💚
