I live barefooted and naked, 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. 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Hive's expression of blockchain technology is elegant, efficient, and truly excellent, and yet without us, the people that make and make up the Blockchain, there would be no Hive. Every single individual on this Blockchain, whether s/he realize it or not, is an integrally important part of it. We are all essemtial links in the Chain. This applies as much to life as it does to Hive.
The beauty, magic, and the uniquely significant contribution that each of us has the potential to bring to the Blockchain is unparalleled and irreplaceable, and that's why it's truly so necessary for us all to show up here authentically, to do our best, and to give our all. What we as individuals can bring to Hive is precious, and that's how we should see and treat our contribution here, as a sacred gift to all of humanity, given with great love and care.
This may seem 'over the top' or 'extreme', but is it really? Is not all of life one immense sacred gift? The way that we do anything is the way we do everything, so bring your love, care, and reverence to every single thing that you do, including what you do here on this glorious Blockchain. Let us be radiant and strong links in the Chain, here for the good of all. That is how Hive, and how humanity, succeeds and grows into its greatest possible potential.
There is a saying in martial arts training in many schools, 'each one, teach one', meaning that it is our beautiful individual and personal responsibility to assist and help each other when the opportunity presents itself. We are all teachers, at different times, on each other's path here, so when you have the chance to lift or enlighten a fellow Hiver/Hivian on his or her path, take it! Another day someone will do the same for you. This is how we lift each other, and our whole Blockchain, to ever-greater heights, through our individual and very personal choices to express our care and love every day that we have another exquisite opportunity to do so.
Yesterday was one of those days when I felt a bit overwhelmed and behind. I attended the morning community NVC meeting, which took up much of my morning, I had to deal with a solar electrical issue, an internet connection issue, and Elohi was asking for some bodywork on his back and legs, so getting the previous iteration of this post done, as well as completing my daily Hive catch-up and tasks, was quite a bit more challenging than usual. I was thankfully able to successfully do everything that I needed to do, and in a reasonably good time frame. I left the Flow House by about 4:30PM, after finally getting Hive to a suitable pause-point. I did a few personal tasks before diving into land work, including taking photos for this post. For work I was originally supposed to meet up with Ano to dig up bunchie-top infected banana plants, but that did not flow, so I refocused, sharpened my machete, and went to do more clearing work on the second driveway, near the Flow House. I got another good section cleared. Keeping areas cleared out here is a constant task, as everything grows really fast, and the jungle will eat everything if you're not paying attention.
After working, I took a shower, got food for myself and my kitten friend, then headed back to the Flow House to dive into my evening round of Hive catch-up and tasks. I got everything done, but toward the end I was starting to fall asleep, so as soon as I was finished, I jumped into bed.
I slept well pretty much the whole night, which is great, and I woke up feeling very good indeed. One of the women with whom I work in sessions, Kula, sent me a text yesterday asking about a session for today, which worked for me, so I have a session with her scheduled today starting somewhere between 11:30AM to 12PM. Because of the session, it was necessary for me to get this post done beforehand, so I started very early, right after a quick round of token management.
It's now just after 9AM, so a glorious time to end this post, so that I can go make my superfood fire coffee, feed my kitten friend, and get as much Hive catch-up done as I can before Kula arrives. I also have to set up the space at the Flow House a bit, too. I deeply appreciate you all so very much! Until tomorrow! Onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Power 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! 😁🙏💚
