I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #460 - 2,900 HP Surpassed, and #HPUD Later Today! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, October 30, 2023

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I reached 2,900 HP yesterday afternoon, slightly later than expected, but it's still progressing at a nice pace. I should surpass 3,000 HP either next week or the week after, so another big milestone is quickly approaching! At this rate of growth, even if I'm not able to sell my DOGE/SWAP.DOGE at a good price to be able to buy and power up a good amount of HIVE, I should still reach dolphin level within just a few months. That's pretty fantastic!

I also have 18.5 HIVE that I'll be powering up in the evening (after Hive's UTC time switches to the next day at 2PM my time) for the November 1st #HPUD. I'll write my #HPUD post right after powering up and taking screen shots. I should pass 2,950 HP by the end of the week, so then just 50 HP to go to get to 3,000 HP! That's going quite quick indeed!

I'm still one of the most active people on the Blockchain, and I have been for quite a good while now. My massive, and sometimes overwhelming, amount of notifications that I work through each day is a testiment to that! Seriously, how does any one individual get soooooooooooooo many notifications every day?!? As fast as I'm able to fully catch up, I'm buried once again in just a few hours time! Pure craziness I tell you! I always get it done, but sometimes it takes me many, many hours, like the past week moving into this week, where the number of notifications went off the chart again!

I claimed 3.128 HBD in interest yesterday morning from my holding in Savings, bringing it to a total of almost 207 HBD in Savings now. Equally with my HP, I'm determined to grow my HBD in Savings to massive levels, as quickly as I'm able, because at some point I will easily be able to live off of just the monthly interest alone, even if the APR is lowered to 12-15% at some point.

I'm excited, inspired, and ever-more motivated to see the increasing speed that my account is growing, because in it I also see all my commitment, dedication, and consistency over the past two years paying off more and more each day. That's incredible! And for all the newcomers reading this, I started just like you, from scratch and with nothing, so seeing what I've accomplished in my time here should clearly inform you that it is very possible for you as well, though work and patience will indeed be required. Seriously, you can do it, so get to it! You have a whole amazing community or people here to help and support you on your journey!

Yesterday was a mostly cloudy and rainy Monday, with me still woefully behind on my Hive notifications, regardless of the many hours that I've continued to spend to catch up. Because of the rain and my strong focus on getting through my notifications, I forgot to take photos for this post yesterday, so I did so this morning instead, under far better light conditions. For physical work yesterday I did dishes in the Landing and cleaned around the sink area, a task that was drastically needed. After my round of kitchen-cleaning, I strained out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, made myself food, got food for my kitten friend, then I returned to the Flow House to eat and get as much Hive catch-up, and as many tasks, as I could done before the 6:30PM community Logisitics meeting in the Casbah. After check-ins, I continued with my Hive catch-up through the whole meeting. When it finished, I returned to the Flow House to continue with my focus on catching up and finishing important tasks on Hive. Even after many hours more, I was still not able to get myself closer than 8 hours behind in my Hive notifications before I had to go so sleep close to 12:30AM. Upon waking around 6:30AM, I immediately did a round of token management, one time-sensitive Hive task (@benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive daily contest), then I dove back into more catching up, which I kept at until I got out of bed around 8AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now approaching 12PM, so this is a good place to end this post for now, so that I may get to my Hive essential tasks and of course more catching up, before going to work on the land later in the afternoon. I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until my #HPUD post later tonight and the next incarnation of this post tomorrow! Onwars 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
