I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1339 - The Great Awakening, and My Increasingly-Solitary World-Bridging Ways - Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, March 28, 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 talk about The Great Awakening, the greatest collective awakening that humanity has ever known, that is exponentially expanding in coherence across the populations of the world, in my posts so often, because, well, that's why I'm on earth. It's part of my primary purpose and mission here. Ever since I was a child I knew that a massive collective awakening of humanity was coming, and that I was here to help make it happen. I've been waiting and watching for it all my life. I have not been disappointed, though I will say that some of my many personal great awakenings that have puntuated my life have hit and shaken me to my human core. In human terms, I've found that the more aware we become, the more that we learn and come to understand, the more solitary our paths becomes. I don't think that it has to be that way, but it's certainly been my experience. I found a video on X this morning that hit the nail on the head quite well, WHY SPIRITUALLY AWAKENING PEOPLE ARE QUIETLY WITHDRAWING FROM SOCIETY..

Once I fully grokked that what people call 'mainstream society' and the 'world order' was in fact an ingeniously-created parasitic slave system, removing myself from it as much as possible became a necessity, which is, in part, how I came to live off-grid in the jungle at GaiaYoga. Human growth and awakening is often very asymmetrical, however, and as my own mini great awakenings continued, I soon came to realize that most of the people with whom I lived in this off-grid community, or with whom I interacted in the larger Lower Puna community, were still entranced and entrapped by the same dominant false narratives, which is part of why I've pulled back from much of my community involvement here, and from engagement with community events and gatherings outside of GaiaYoga, as it just too mentally-emotionally-energetically exhausting and frustrating.

I've always been a bridge, or a nexus point, between widely diverse worlds, perspectives, domains, and contexts of being, with a deep need and drive to see and understand how everything connects together into the greater whole. As such, I explore and work to reconcile all perspectives into coherent wholeness. Sadly, I've noticed that most people are not like this at all, living as they do in belief and identity structures not their own. Trying to share conversations with individuals who do not look under the surface, and who don't go deeply into exploring or researching anything, is unpleasant, to say the least. Ignorance and unconsciousness hit my system like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Part of my mostly-solitary ways over the past few years is also due to my still broken/shattered heart, so my solitude is indeed quite compounded. I still don't know what to do about that, as it's a complex and painful mess, so I focus my energies elsewhere, in more productive areas, of which Hive has received great deal.

Bridging worlds and exploring and reconciling perspectives as I do, surrounded by so many people who are not this way, leaves me feeling that I don't really fully fit in anywhere at all. Yes, I can comfortably and effectively engage, but there is very rarely the feeling of 'home' or 'tribe'. I bridge worlds, but I don't completely fit in any of them, so yeah, between that and my broken heart, I usually spend 95-99% of my time alone. I have no idea if, when, or how that might change at some point, though I very much hope that it does.

Yesterday, Saturday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by just before 2:30PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts, and then to a whole host of assorted jungle-community tasks, which kept me occupied until the early evening, at which point I went to Wabisabi to make myself some food (spiced-and-seasoned beef burger, on olive-oil-toasted sourdough, with pepperjack cheese, and Dijon mustard), and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hands, I headed back to the Flow House to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got everything done by a little after 10PM, and after some asset management, and scanning my X feed, I went to bed by a bit after 11:30PM. I woke up just after 7:15AM, having slept well, going to make my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, then returning to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 1:45PM, so it's a very good time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my numerous other important Sunday 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 a few small jungle-community tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's version 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
