It's utterly insane! That's badass, my friend, and you should be proud of that! That's exactly it, it's about being self-sufficient and self-dependent! The more that we know, and know how to do, the freer we are in practical terms! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

That's exactly how I feel my friend!😀
I really can't understand why my neighbor is so proud of the fact that they pay people to do everything.......
Almost as if they think money solves everything!
In fact a lot of people with money are very unhappy🙄
It's almost like they associate doing things for themselves as manual labor of the 'lower class', something from which they seem to want to distance themselves as quickly as they can! They are dependent slaves in their quest to have everything done for them, and they don't even know it! You said it, many with huge fortunes are not happy campers at all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
That's exactly how I kind of feel, I am always proud that I can accomplish something on my own!😇
Ditto that, my friend, so much! I've learned to do all sorts of things living out here in the jungle! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Just be careful living close to an active volcano my friend!😇😊
Thank you, my friend, and indeed! Kilauea has been erupting more vigorously, and last week we actually had volcanic ash and Pele's hair (shards of volcanic glass) falling from the sky! I could also see lots of volcanic gases mixed in with the clouds! It made the sun deep orange/red! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
That sounds very intense, my friend!😳
I have never heard of volcanic glass!
Well, it certainly can be! Pele's hair is basically very-thin filaments of volcanic glass, that look like lots of little pieces of fiberglass in the sun. They can definitely get under the skin, which isn't incredibly pleasant, I must say! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
You would think breathing this would be very hazardous my friend.......
Be careful!!
Thankfully Pele's hair is pretty heavy, so it falls quickly, all over the place! The more challenging thing during eruptions is sulfur dioxide, as it binds to water, making acid rain. It also binds to mucus membranes, so it can be extremely irritating to eyes, mouth, and throat! Always, my friend, I promise! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
How does having an active volcano affect drinking water my friend?
You would think having water wells would be very challenging!🙄
When there is a lot of sulfur dioxide in the air, all water turns very acidic, so people out here usually put large amounts of baking soda in their catchment tanks. In this part of Hawai'i there are no wells, since the land is so new, so all water goes straight through into the porous lava below. It's all rain catchment out here! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
That makes sense...... and since you are so close to the ocean you couldn't even put a wall very deep without hitting saltwater🙄
Yep, all our water comes from the rain. Living here, while amazing, definitely has its own host of challenges. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
I guess it's a good thing you get over 100 inches of rainfall given that you depend on that for water containment!😇👍😀
Absolutely, it's super helpful, especially with providing water for a whole community! We've come close to running out before! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
