I live barefooted and naked, 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. 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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Here in the US it's Thanksgiving Day today, and on this #ThankfulThursday I want to give my immense thanks to Hive and the incredible community of Hivers/Hivians that compose it! I've found myself ever-more grateful since I first appeared here in this exceptionally excellent Blockchain Ecosystem on September 23, 2021, so exactly 2 years and 2 months ago!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Hive!

Overflowing gratitude and thankfulness have infused and permiated my entire Hive experience, equally for the solidly sovereignty-driven technology that is at its core, and for all of you truly beautiful, warm, kind, and generous people with whom I share this glorious Blockchain! That's a powerful combo, to say the least, and one that fuels my undying and ever-growing passion, loyalty, commitment, dedication, determination, consistency, perseverence, persistence, and tenacity for Hive, and everyone that is a part of it, to thrive!

As I continue to build and grow my account, I promise to continue to assist, help, and support as many of you, and the whole Hive Ecosystem, as I'm able! I know clearly that your success is directly connected to my own success, so I give my all, every day, for one and all! I'm so thankful to be able to do this in the way that I have for so long, and I pray that I am able to continue doing so for a very long time!

May appreciation, gratitude, and thankfulness orient all of our words and actions here on Hive, and in our lives! Imagine a whole Blockchain Ecosystem living and breathing that every day! Oh, yeah, that's right! We don't have to imagine it, because we already have that here on Hive! I see and experience it every day, and you know what? I am so grateful, and I am so thankful! Heaven's yes, and more, please!

Yesterday, Wednesday, I wrapped up my afternoon round of essential Hive tasks, a small bit of catching up on notifications, and I left the Flow House to go focus on land work by 3PM. Because it was so cloudy in the morning, I took a short time to take photos for this post first, before diving into my work tasks for the day. Once the photos were taken, I got my machete and collected a wheelbarrow full of Cecropia leaves for the next morning's milking cow food. With that completed, I got a shovel and an o-o bar to dig three holes for the Thanksgiving Day planting of the two trees and one bamboo that were chosen. When I finished the holes, I collected two five gallon buckets full of soil for the planting of a handful of young papaya plants in the Citrus Orchard behind Tutu's, with which I also helped to complete. After planting the papayas, I did some paid bamboo propagation for Ano in his nursery until just before sunset.

When I had work done for the day, I took a shower, strained out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, got food supplies from Tutu's, made myself food, and got food for my kitten friend, then I returned to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive tasks and catching up thoroughly on my notifications. I had everything finished by about 12:30AM, definitely later than I had hoped, but at least I got it done, which was great! I went to sleep very soon after that.

I slept well, very thankfully, waking up about 6AM, and doing a quick round of token management, then some catching up on notifications, before finally getting out of bed around 8AM to go make my superfood fire coffee. I attended the community NVC meeting this morning from 9AM to around 11AM, then I headed back to the Flow House to begin writing this post.

Its now just after 1:30PM, so it's a great time to end this post, so that I can get to my afternoon round of Hive essentials, before going to attend and participate in the community Thanksgiving Day tree planting at 3:30PM, and then focus on a bit of land work afterwards. I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until tomorrow! Onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
