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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Every now and again there are things that come into our awareness that change our life from that point on, sometimes profoundly. Hive is one of those very special change agents for me. I haven't been the same since I first arrived here over a year and eight months ago. You see, Hive enthralled me, like my beloved Arch Linux did more than five and a half years ago, and I become more passionately all in the longer I'm here, and the deeper I go. There ain't nothin' like Hive!
A great deal of my present focus goes into Hive, as my passionate excitement fuels my daily, and ongoing, commitment, dedication, and tenacity. I organize my day around what I do on Hive. That's pretty significant! Hive is definitely not just a 'hobby', but rather a next-level business and investment, along with a huge array of other things!
From reading innumerable posts, I know I'm not alone in this. Hive has changes the lives of a great many people, and I see a lot of passion lighting up the Blockchain, which is incredibly inspiring and motivating!
Hive, by the very nature of its exceptional technology, and its truly amazing community, is primed to change the lives of millions around the world, for the better. And Hive's only three years old! It's just getting started!
The sun and rain's amorous dance has punctuated many a day lately, including today, out here in our rainforest jungle. We had a community NVC meeting this morning at 9AM, though Ano wanted to show a movie (La Belle Verte - The Beautiful Green) that he found inspiring, instead of the regular NVC practice. There was much about the movie that I appreciated. After the movie and the meeting, I made a bee line for the Flow House, to continue with my Hive catch-up that I started in the early morning.
Even with focused efficiency, I wasn't able to finish catching up on Hive before I had to leave the Flow House to go work on the land for a while. It had to wait until later.
In terms of work, today was a very productive day indeed! My first task was putting in two T-posts into the ground to repair a fallen fence (where our sheep made their second great escape). The next task was to trace out particular water pipes that feed water into our catchment tanks. I found one pipe broken at an elbow joint. Thankfully it was an easy repair. We have two separate water systems, and Ano and I traced lines at both. Ano found the second break at the lower water system, near Kana's place. The second break was also an easy repair, very thankfully!
The third task of the day was helping Ano to finish building a bamboo headboard for his mother, Braja. Once we had it built, we carried it over to Braja's place to deliver it.

With work done for the day, I took a hot shower, strained out another round of kefir to make my yummy kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, and I made some food. Once food was made, I returned to the Flow House (a bit later than usual) to finish my Hive catch-up that I couldn't finish earlier, get a couple important takes done, and then finally write this post.
It's now almost 1AM, so I'll now take my leave to go to sleep! I deeply appreciate you all! Until tomorrow! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
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! 😁🙏💚

Thank you again so much Andy! I appreciate it! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Due to the passion with which you write about your feelings towards hive, I can tell that you really enjoy your stay here, I congratulate you, thank you for such beautiful photographs that you share with us.
Thank you so much! Yes, it's true, I love Hive and I'm very grateful to be here! Thank you again! Absolutely, you're most welcome! It's always my deep honor, pleasure, and privilege to share! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Greetings to Ano and it looks like a very nice headboard made out of bamboo. I was wondering what it might end up looking like until I saw the picture. Thanks for sharing another member of your community and the work you do there. Would have been nice to see this piping you were talking about, but work is work and perhaps it was not a safe place to have your phone.
Hiya Michael! I'm grateful that you're appreciating the photos! I'm sharing more all the time! Absolutely, you're very welcome! I didn't even think to take photos of the plumbing work, I suppose because it wasn't particularly 'pretty'. I could share things like that, too, though! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
I thing is someone has to imagine whatever it is you are describing and to be honest, I believe most readers are probably about as clueless as I am. I always find myself asking... What's a Flow House?
Point well taken! Thank you! I suppose I could flesh out my day with a few more photos, aside from the ones I take to beautify my posts. Hehe...I've described and posted photos of the Flow House several times, but I guess it would be helpful to give more information when I mention things like that. I always try to do so, but I just didn't want to be super repetitive. The Flow House is an open-air bamboo yurt with a tarp roof, constructed on top of the lava from the 2018 eruption that covered a portion of the property. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Interesting. I will have to scan through some old posts and try to spot it.
You could also do a search posts for Flow House in Ecency or PeakD. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
