I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #567 - A Good Session Yesterday, No Sleep, and Info on Arcange - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Thursday, February 15, 2024

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 5 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

My session yesterday with Amelia went very well, as I knew it would, and she left a very relaxed, happy noddle. This is, of course, exactly as I'd hoped and intended. I experience a deep feeling of satisfaction when women leave my sessions happy. I love happy women. While I don't have any other sessions organized yet, I do have a strong feeling that others will be scheduled very soon, which would be a wondeful thing.

Although I tried, I wasn't able to sleep at all last night, so I definitely don't feel very good today. Some nights I sleep wonderfully well, and yet other nights, for whatever reason, I am not able to sleep much, if at all. I still don't know exactly why this is. Since I got no sleep last night, that means that I need to get all of my Hive tasks done early tonight, because I know that I'll fade fast, and I very much need to get a good night's sleep to make up for it.

In my post the day before yesterday, I mentioned that all of @arcange's services were offline, and had been for several days, including both the HiveBuzz website and notification service, Engage, as well as HiveSQL, HiveAuth, Hive NET, Hive Recovery, Hive Autoclaim, and Xfer. I did some poking around this morning, to see if I could find out more about what happened, and thankfully I came upon this post, EN-PT The attack on Hive's greatest witness, by @crazyphantombr, where he shared some important information on what occurred. Apparently his servers were hacked and disabled. Only his witness node is still functioning presently. Given that his services are so critically important for various aspects of Hive's functioning, this attack dealt a major blow to the Blockchain. I'm hoping that he'll be able to get everything up and running again very soon.

This attack on @arcange, and the disabling of his numerous important services, highlights the vulnerability to our Blockchain Ecosystem when we do not have sufficient decentralization of our infrastructure. With one attack, a great many notable parts of Hive are now broken. We absolutely must decentralize our infrastructure more fully, to make it far more resistant and resilient against attacks of this nature, especially before Hive becomes known to many more people. As it stands now, Hive is not ready for any large influx of people if pivotally important aspects of how it functions are so vulnerable. Decentralize, decentralize, decentralize...

I began my session with Amelia around 1:15PM yesterday afternoon, and we finished by just about 5PM, so a session of usual duration. As I mentioned above, she left very relaxed, happy, and grateful, which is music to my heart. After finishing the session and saying good bye to Amelia, I made a little food, then I headed back to the Flow House to dive into my evening round of Hive tasks and catching up on notifications. Unfortunately, because I had so many notifications, I was not able to get fully caught up last night, getting only to within 6 hours of being up to date. I did a short round of token management, checked my X feed, then I went to bed just after 12AM, and as I also mentioned above, I sadly did not sleep at all. As I type this, I feel reasonably OK, better than this morning, but I'm quite tired. I'll just do my best to start early on my Hive tasks tonight, so that I can finish early and to straight to bed. I started on a round of token management around 6:30AM, then I completed @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest, and a little more catching up on notifications, before getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now just before 1:15PM, which is a very good time to end this post, so that I can get to my essential Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House in the later afternoon, to first take photos for tomorrow's version of this post, and then land work. I plan to work in my nursery again today, to continue with my cleaning, weeding, and organizing. I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until tomorrow! Forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2024 Life Goals

1.) Heal my broken heart. 

2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness, and do regular integral practices. 

3.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again. 

4.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again. 

5.) Continue my work with Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, Bastyon, and other sovereignty-driven technologies, as well as learn relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute. 

6.) Get regular healing sessions with women flowing again. 

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
