I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #465 - On the Cusp of 3,000 HP, and BTC Rising Again - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, November 4, 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
By the time this post is published I will have just under 50 HP to go to reach 3,000 HP, which is pretty exciting to me. It was not long ago that I surpassed 2,000 HP, and I can say that going from 1,000 HP to 2,000 HP took quite a bit longer than it's taken me to get to the edge of 3,000 HP. It makes sense, because the more we have the faster we grow, and because going from 1,000 HP to 2,000 HP requires gaining 100% of the total, while going from 2,000 HP to 3,000 HP only requires a gain of 50% of the total. And when I reach 3,000 HP, to get to 4,000 HP will only require gaining 1/3 of the total, which will go quite quickly indeed! Pretty nifty stuff.
I don't know exactly how much Hive Power I'll have by the end of the year, but it may be close to 4,000 HP if I were to hazzard a guess, based on my present rate of growth, and that's being quite conservative in my estimate. That's also not taking into account if I'm able to sell my large chunk of DOGE/SWAP.DOGE on Hive Engine and BitForex, which would all be used to buy HIVE to power up. So I'd say that my prognostication for the end of this year and moving into next is very good indeed. Dolphin level is looking quite close.
On the subject of my DOGE/SWAP.DOGE, I'm watching BTC's rise once again, waiting for an opportune time sell it. It's moving into a workable range again, but I'm going to wait until it goes up notably, as I intend to buy a good chunk of HIVE with it, hopefully 2,500+, which would easily catapult me to dolphin level. I think this will be soon.
In growing my Hive Power and HBD in Savings, my layer-1 assets, I'll more easily be able to invest further in the layer-2 assets, as a part of my Hive Multi-Stream Passive-Income Machine. It's all coming together more each day, which renews my determination. I'm creating sometime truly amazing here on Hive, and its fruits are visible even now. Just to think, I started here from zero, with nothing, a little over two years ago. My oh my how this snowball has grown, and it won't stop, as compounding interest and exponential growth work their glorious magic!
After many hours, spread in chunks across the day and night, I was finally able to get fully caught up on my Hive notifications yesterday, Saturday, in the late evening. To say I felt accomplished is an understatement, especially after not being able to fully catch up for five days in a row! Yahooey!
I left the Flow House, after my afternoon round of Hive catch-up and tasks, around 3:30PM yesterday, to go put my energy into some land work. I walked around to take photos for this post, first, however. Before that, though, I had to delete a bunch of old photos, as my phone's internal storage ran out of space. Doh!
For land work yesterday I helped Ano unload coconuts from his truck after his Friday weekly cocoing trip, we loaded his truck for Sunday market after that, then I did some bodywork on him at his request, and finally we collected a wheelbarrow full of cow food (Cecropia leaves) for the next morning. Ano also showed me a few more bamboos in his nursery for me to propagate.
Once I had finished work for the day, I strained out more kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, made food for myself, got food for my kitten friend, then I headed back to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive catch-up and tasks, which as I mentioned above, I was actually able to finish for the first time in five days, just before 11PM. I stayed up for a short while longer, doing a litle token management and scanning my feed on X, before finally going to sleep a little after 12AM. I did thankfully sleep well, waking up around 6AM, and diving into a a more thorough round of token management, completing an important and time-sensitive Hive task (@benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest), and then doing a good round of catching up on my notifications, that had grown quite a lot only since last night. I finally got out of bed around 9AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.
It's now just past 1:30PM, so it's a marvelous time to end this post, so that I can dive into my more thorough Sunday round of Hive catch-up and tasks, before finally compiling and writing my 75th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update, that I'll publish later tonight, just before bed. I deeply appreciate you all so much! Until that post tonight, and the next iteration of this post 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Great! Thank goodness you were able to get right on track and catch on with your activities on hive.
Your explanation of the HP sum up and benefit makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing.
Is that pineapple 🍍 I saw there or a plant that looks like it.
A job well done my friend👍🏽🤩 more wins💕✨🤗
Thank you so much, dear Whitney! Lately my notifications are so massive that I'm usually 10-20 hours behind, like now, I'm 20 hours behind in this moment...🤣
I'm grateful that you appreciated what I shared! Yay! You're si Very welcome, of course! Yep, that is a pineapple! It's a variegqted form, with white stripes not only on the leaves, but on the fruit too.
Thanks much again, dear, I appreciate you and your kind words! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
The pleasure is always mine💕✨🤗
I had to look at the pineapple again. It has such a rough back. By variated, is it sweeter, more sour to the taste? Just inquisitive.
You are an engagement guru hence having a lot to attend to. I know you will catch on in good time.👍🏽💪🏽
Ditto, darling!
This particular variety of pineapple is quite a bit more prickly than the more usual green ones, both in the fruit and in the leaves, which are much sharper. I still haven't tried these yet, but I've heard that they taste like the regular yellow ones. The white pineapples are notably better in flavor than any that I've tasted.
Haha...it's kind of wild that I flowed in this hyper-engagement direction, as it's so very different from when I first arrived here! I appreciate your confidence, thank you so much, dear Whitney! Yes, I will at least get closer to caching up! Have a beautiful Thursday! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Oh! Nice. I am made wiser today by an inch, thank you loads dear @tydynrain
Have an awesome weekend 💕🤗
I'm always happy en share about plants! It's fun! I'm happy that it was useful! You're always so welcome, dear Whitney! Thank you! I wish you an exceptionally excellent and wonderfully wild weekend! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Same to you dear. Thank you🙏🏽💕🤗
Thank you so much, Whitney! Of course, you're always most welcome! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Knowing you, it will not be long before you have 50HP and then you will be nearing 75 or 100.
I have a couple of questions about your plant pics. One of my pineapples grew on a "stem" like the one in your picture, do you know what they are called?
Do you ever make hair products from the cones on the ginger? I have heard you can make something for the hair with it but I do not know anyone who has done it.
Thank you so much for that, @myjob! I think that is probably true...I'm moving fast, and I'm determined.
All pineapple flowers and fruit grow on top of a stem that comes out of the center of the plant. Once the fruit ripens, the parent plant grows new 2-3 shoots, and then dies. It takes two years for side shoots like that, or the planted pineapple tops, to produce fruit.
I haven't made anything for myself, no, but we do have those types of ginger here. They call them awapuhe or shampoo ginger. The liquid in the flowers is seemingly very good for hair. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
What I was talking about with the pineapple is, I have some that grow on what looks like a stem coming out of the middle of the plant
And others that will grow right down on top of the plant
Ah, I see what you mean. They both have stems that come from the same place, it's just that they have diffent lengths. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
That is what I was trying to say. I was thinking they were a different type of pineapple from the ones I have that look to have a very short stem or no stem.
Ah, yes, get it now. It might be a varietal characteristic. I don't know the short-stem variant, as all pineapples here have long stems. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
That is weird, we used to have all short stems until the last couple of years, Whenever I get a new pineapple I plant the top. Sometime in the past, I must have got a long-stem one.
Hrmmm...that's so curious. Yep, I always plant the tops, too, as they grow so easily. I don't think I've ever seen a short-stem variety out here. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
I GOT IT!!! My new pineapple came from Hawaii.
