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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
In my post yesterday I mentioned the @mmb-dontations account that I created, for the purpose of receiving asset donations from the Hive community, to fund the development work that @borniet and I are beginning on the MMB (Maximum Mutual Benefit) Meta-Project, that will benefit the whole Ecosystem. The more that I've been thinking and feeling into this idea, the more that it seems that it could grow into an alternative means of funding development of aspects of the Hive Ecosystem outside of formal DHF proposals, which I feel is a good thing.
While the initial idea and implementation is to use assets received on @mmb-dontations to fund the creation and set up of the MMB infrastructure, to purchase income tokens (to both stake on the bot accounts, as well as to distribute to the community in the form of tips and dividends), HBD to put into Savings (for future development and dividends), and assets to add to diesel/liquidity pools (for useful daily-reward assets), this idea could indeed grow into something far larger. @borniet and I are both very active on Hive, and we're always talking with people, some of whom have ideas for things to implement in one of our projects, which we note down. With the birth of the MMB Meta-Project, and the creation of the @mmb-dontations account, we could set up an official means for the community to communicate their ideas to us, such as a Discord server. This opens up a whole host of possibilities for community-initiated development on Hive.
The initial costs, which inspired the creation of the @mmb-dontations account and this idea, are higher because there's quite a bit to implement and get bootstrapped. These costs are expected to go down over time, as more internal, or endogenic, sources of assets are created, such as income tokens, diesel/liquidity pools, and HBD in Savings. Once the full system is up and running, then more of what is internally generated can be distributed to the community as tips and dividends.
I've gotten quite good at leveraging and growing assets in the time I've been here, and I'm putting everything that I've learned into what @borniet and I are creating. We both want to create something truly breathtaking, that is very good for the Hive community, and that makes what Hive is, better. We are in partnership with you, the Hive community, to create truly incredible things together, for all of us, and for the whole Blockchain Ecosystem. Maximum Mutual Benefit to the max!
Yesterday, Thursday, I left the Flow House, after wrapping up my Hive tasks, later than usual, around 2:45PM, heading to the Landing first, as I usually do, to strain and blend kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao). With kefir done, I wandered around taking some photos for these posts, when the sun was not occulted behind clouds. I felt inspired to weed the planting beds (that I've been building) on either side of the path going up to the Flow House, as they were getting a bit overgrown. When I had that done to my satisfaction, I took a shower, then I went to sunbathe, in the last rays of sun, on the trampoline in the Peanut Lawn, for a little while. As the sun moved too low in the sky for further sunbathing, I collected my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee, and I made my way back to the Flow House, to write and publish My Entry for Reflection Hunters Contest: Round 182 - Avocado Tree and Lichen Reflections post, and to get to my evening round of Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications. I didn't have as many last night, so I got done quite early, by around 9PM, spending a little more time posting and engaging on Waves and Ecency proper, checking in on Bastyon and X, then finally going to bed early, just after 10PM. I did sleep well, very thankfully, waking up just after 6:15AM, doing a round of token management, starting on this post, checking in on Bastyon and X again, and then getting out of bed around 8:30AM, to go make my superfood fire coffee.
It's now just after 12:30PM, so an excellent time to end this post, so that I can get to a few important Hive tasks, before my session (shorter focused work) with Melekai. After working on Melekai, I need to strain and blend kefir, take more photos for these posts, and then help Melekai put up some fencing around some new garden beds. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's iteration of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2024 Life Goals
1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do.
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.
5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process 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.
