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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
While there are a great many amazing things about Hive that make it stand out from other crypto projects, even other great sovereignty-driven blockchains, one area where it is unmatched is how many diverse ways that there are to generate income, and especially passive income. Pretty much since I arrived on the Blockchain I've been building and growing my Hive Multi-Stream Passive-Income Machine, and while there have been a few setbacks and losses, overall it's been coming along very well indeed.
This passive-income system that I've been creating is made up of three main components, solid income tokens, layer-1 and layer-2 delegations (HP and Hive-Engine tokens), and diesel/liquidity pools. It's a diversified portfolio of passive-income sources across various sectors. While it does require occasional adjustments, tweaks, and changes, it's generally quite reliable and stable over the long term. The multi-stream aspect is important, as it allows for continued income, even when income for individual streams stops, such as when certain layer-2 projects fail, or if rewards end for particular diesel/liquidity pools.
I'm constantly exploring and looking more deeply into new potential passive-income streams, and because of that my investment portfolio is always growing. As I've been mentioning in recent posts, I just recently made a major investment in various income tokens, BXT, DRIP, INCOME, and SORT, and that this investment, especially regarding DRIP, which pays out daily in SWAP.HIVE, has opened the door for me to be able to acquire even more useful passive-income assets. I'm now also diving into getting ahold of a good amount of SIM, which pays out HIVE once 8,000+ are held, and I'm just started looking into a dCity-bound token, ARMERO, which also pays out in HIVE. I may also be diving in to learning how to play dCity well, as it can be quite lucrative to say the least.
With each new passive-income investment, I'm increasing the leverage that I have, my ability to add new streams of income, and to grow those that are already operating. Even as I'm diversifying my passive-income streams, I'm also becoming way more picky and discerning about in which projects I choose to involve myself, which is having the effect of both streamlining my system, and making the investments that I do make more successful. Soon my passive-income streams may reach parity with those income streams of a more active nature, and perhaps may even eclipse them at some point, which is my goal.
Yesterday, Thursday, I left the Flow House, after wrapping up my morning-afternoon Hive tasks, quite a bit earlier than usual, by a little before 11AM. I strained out and blended kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) first, then I spent some time sunbathing on the trampoline in the Peanut Lawn. After that, and a little photography, I sharpened my machete, got the electric chainsaw, and then I went to the Kuti, to help Melekai with some rather intense clearing work, to prepare for the construction of an outdoor composting toilet. I've got to me honest, I worked my ass off, and by the end of it I was totally exhausted. After helping Melekai, I collected Melochia leaves from one of the downed trees, then I took a shower, as I was super dirty, and I went to lay on the trampoline again, to both rest, and to dry off. Soon I had had enough sun again, so I went up to the Flow House to lay down on my bed for a bit longer. After resting for a good while, I put ethernet heads on the ethernet cable that Sperry had just run from the Fuschia Phoenix to the Mana Hut, to give the Mana Hut internet access. Once I got that done, I went to Tutu's because Iolanthe and Ila (her friend that lives nearby) had made two really amazing cakes that they wanted me to try. They were made with organic home-milled whole wheat, and with blackberries, mulberries, and thimbleberries (a type of raspberry), and man were they good! I don't usually like sweet things like that, but these were exceptional! After eating cake, I hung out and played with the girls for a while, pushing Io on her swing, making a fort out of cushions and blankets with them, and just generally (gently) horsing around. They decided that they wanted to do me up in makeup, so they took me to Shiva-Shakti to do just that. Ila had one side of my face, and Io had the other, and they went to work. After they were done, they took lots of photos of their handy work, then Io finally cleaned it off. After Ila had to go home, Io asked me if she could paint my nails, so I let her do that, before finally saying 'good night' to her, collecting my leftover jar of superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, then heading back to the Flow House, to finally get into my evening round of Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications, which I started a bit later than usual. Midway through, Io texted me to ask me if I could make her some dinner down at Tutu's. While it was already late, and I was still behind on Hive, I agreed. After making her some food, I returned to the Flow House to get back to Hive. Although I got close, within 4 hours, I was not able to finish my notifications before I had to go to bed just a bit after 12:30AM. Very thankfully I did sleep well, wakining up around 6AM, doing a round of token management, starting on this post, catching up more on my notifications, then finally getting out of bed a bit after 10AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.
It's now just before 1:30PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I can get to few important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House later in the afternoon, to first make Io some food (she texted me a short while ago), strain out and blend kefir, maybe take more photos for these posts, and then land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's expression of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
2024 Life Goals

2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness.
3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others.
4.) Dance regularly again.

6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.
7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.
9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships.
10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice.
11.) 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.
