I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in a 16-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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Before I came to Hive I was fairly active on a great many, mostly alternative, platforms. I was even active on a few social blockchains, like Flote and Pocketnet/Bastyon. Once I arrived on Hive, and really took a good look around, I was blown away and hooked, and pretty soon I wasn't really using any other platform or framework any longer, at least not on any regular basis. This happened because the beautiful whole that is Hive far surpasses anything else, and I perceived its overwhelmingly exciting potential pretty much from my first day here.
I'm truth, Hive integrates and does so many things well, that I quickly became spoiled for any other platform or framework. Put simply, nothing else can compare. Even something as simple as an integrated De-Fi wallet, for both layer-1 and layer-2 tokens, blows any other blockchain-based platform away, hands down!
Whenever I occasionally wander over to take a peek at platforms I used to peruse and use, I now find them antiquated and lacking important features and development. It's as if I were stretched to new dimensions with Hive, and I just didn't 'fit' on the old platforms any longer.
Today being Thursday, we had our community NVC meeting from 9AM to just about 12PM. Because of that, and the fact that Aloha and Mahina wanted me to do things with them right after the meeting, I wasn't able to get almost any Hive catch-up done in the morning or early afternoon, so just about everything had to wait until the evening. I went in the pool with them again, which is one of their favorite things, though I didn't have time to take them to see the horses again, which is something else that they enjoy immensely.
For land work today I treated a longon tree with a particular acid to induce it to flower and fruit (something they don't tend to do without such treatment), prepared and potted up several cuttings of a giant southeast Asian bamboo, Dendrocalamus asper, and I planted my acerola cherry in the fenced garden. The kids were nearby much of the time, and they also helped a little with the bamboo.
After making food (and saying 'good night' to the kidlets) in the early evening, I returned to the Flow House to do several hours of very focused Hive catch-up and tasks, which culminated with me beginning to write this post. Thankfully I was able to catch up on everything. Whew!
It's now almost 1AM, so I will now take my leave so that I can dive into bed. I deeply appreciate you all! Until tomorrow! Onward and upward, together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

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! 😁🙏💚
