Journal log for events of the day:
A day in the Life of Deadcat8843
The clock struck 8:45AM, the digital redness blaring through the blurry vision that were my eyes...
tick-tock..wake up time!!! I opened my lids slowly to the light streaming across a southern window.
Flashing, like a beacon...
Little did I know that the events of the day would be blessed with "human angels" that would reunite me with a lost treasure so dear to my heart...
My magical sword, my familiar, my Katana Yuki...bearing the insignia of a Maple Leaf (peacekeepers...) - trusted companion and sidekick as we take our walks through the lovely nooks and crannies of this magical place called Riverdale in Cabbagetown...
yes...you probably have seen me with my dog walking along the paths, listening to Battlestar Galactica and Where The Wild Things Are soundtrack...most times...as I take each step...sitting somewhere quietly appreciating the wonderful ways that us humans are blessed with the ability to appreciate a landscape, a flower, the laughter of children, and wonderful smart creatures called dogs.
I see a lot of friendly folks, happy, smiling neighbours that help each other...it's as if this piece of land were sending good waves around the people that explore or visit it- steeped in multi-culturalism that everybody celebrates and proud to say these people are actually making a difference... providing answers to sustainable and green living...much like what our folks back home are doing...
.all for the same cause...uplifting and providing solutions to the needS of the community and pave the way for a better future...and then some...

The mantra that I kept repeating was "OM MANI PADME HUM" the Sunday I was at the Cabbagetown Festival and was taking a picture of this - jokingly I said to my partner - I think I just got some blessing from this deity.
- not to worry - all things will fall into place when I said the "service" will manifest itself. For the ones smart enough to figure out the riddles of life....it absolutely makes me love life even more...

A FEW DAYS LATER PASS...NO SIGN OF MY DOG...
I recall sending my friend Jaime this long e-mail...pouring my guts out and would like to share this with all of you... the kindness of these three strangers as my way of acknowledging and saying my heartfelt "thank you!!!"...
To give thanks to the real heroes that are all about action, providing solutions and not for selfish reasons - (after all, look at who made the awesome film Scott Pilgrim and game of the same name)
....so there you are my friends....confessions of Deadcat8843 are "zingers" and reflections of own personal adventures...and observations..so that others may see...love begets love...

Below is the actual e-mail that I sent my friend Jaime last week:

hey, thanks for helping me get back a semblance of myself. you have helped immensely last night - just got back from riverdale hoping to find my dog and posted a few signs - thought i was ok but the dizzy spells started as soon as i got outside. managed to eat the leftovers from last night - so don't worry - i'm eating. the tiredness will not go away much as I would like to - my illness is "deep-rooted" and that's why i've had to resort to finding help online.
there have been major turning points in my life that i know i was being tested. Life has been my Teacher, my Guru, and that's why I never turned anyone away. It's not for me to judge what other people's intentions are but let them see the truth if I could only touch their hearts and Katana is a part of that circle. She is safe - I know that much - and I love all humans regardless, the lesson of forgiveness and sacrifice rings true. We will find her, I just have to wait until the right time comes.
take heart that the lessons in life are the most valuable ones - that's why money never mattered to me, i was able to accomplish so many things while i was by myself alone in a different land. i studied, interacted, learned, exposed myself to all the myriads of colours that i see in people's hearts.
i'm not sure if you've heard of women having the sight, as i've said before at the age of 3 i knew i did not belong to my current family although i'm related to them by blood. i've always have had visions of a red haired woman coming out of an ancient looking tree...dreams of tall glowing beings giving me 3 keys with diff. coloured gems. the visions i tried to describe through fantasy or fiction writing...the 3 books that i've been trying to finish have been dreams and visions...the reasons for me being weak in physical form is also a side effect from recent earth changes. i'm starting to find people that i can compare notes and dates of when i "see" or when i started sketching women...and why I've always referred to Toronto as the "Crysal City" - as i've said before life has a funny way of explaining to me the reason why i kept putting dates and times on my artworks or any writing - it was almost as if I knew that by keeping them - they were going to provide "proof" for me to show the Others -and when I meet them finally, the rest will be history.
It gives me comfort to find out that I'm really not alone, that there are the Others like your friend...or goodness through people that the work is revealed. I'm slowly being connected to other people who share the same path - look at you and me!!!
Your friend Donna is on her way to Enlightenment...remember what I said...I will walk barefoot and live in the wild just to show mankind that there is another alternative.
A better future for all of us without destroying Mother Earth...Dalai Lama have always stressed Love, Compassion and Service...
I saw the Truth for what it was...one day... I simply wish I'm given the chance to work for the Light and not for the wrong master.
Love is a strange thing...it encompasses everything even the negative forces that tries to spread darkness and chaos around the world.
There are those who have been doing the work quietly, allowing the Light to simply touch any human being they encounter
And give hope that all is not lost - there's a better option than what all of us are led to believe. I've been trying to transition into the self-sustaining path where I can see myself
enjoying the crops that I've planted and having a simple life with a little shop to trade goods with my neighbours. No one said all of us have to be artists, one could be a wine-maker trading his wine for some vegetables or chicken from his neighbour. Waste not - want not...I can see a better earth greener and more beautiful if only everyone can see the vision themselves...without greed and power abusing the land.
Need to get some rest...take care of yourself and don't worry about me...catching some zzzz
Smile, it's not the end of the world...maybe tonight i'll be able to do some work on my book - it will give me much comfort while I await my dog's return.
