Because in Estonia I had Juckie the First.When I came to Australia and we took the cat he got the same name as a cat in Estonia. And sad news is that Juckie the Second died today. He was sick more then one month, Mary even took her once to the doctor . But the doctor was unable to determine what's wrong with him. We did,nt have money to take him to another doctor and today we found him dead, Before it was 3 buddhist who lived here, from today its just Benny and me. Our third friend left us.}}

Then I moved back to the countryside and Juckie the second with me. He liked it here. So big territory for him to rule, He was together with us when we made offerings, when Benny was looking for the UFO-s.

But no use of it because it did,nt scare the mice Benny even took some photos when this promising device was working and mice were eating om neiberhood.So we decided to take a non-Buddhist step and take a cat to scare them .We looked again in GumTree and found a cat. He was white. We drove to the city, He was in shelter for the animals. What was amazing he was sitting alone in cage and looked at us as he was prince or some sort of royalty. Very calm and peaceful manner.}}

| − | {{GalleryTable|DSC 7158.JPG| When the mice disappeared Juckie get really lazy. He even did,nt bother to stay on his feet. Almost he was always half asleep somewher around. The same time he noticed everything. Today we lost him. So no more Juckie II.He gave us so many warm moments just because he was there. Today was the last day for him here in sansara incarnation as a cat.}}

Wishful thinking is the formation of beliefs and making decisions according to what might be pleasing to imagine instead of by appealing to evidence, rationality, or reality.}}

When you look at Wikipedias explanation: [[Reality]] is the state of things as they actually exist, rather than as they may appear or might be imagined. In a wider definition, [[reality]] includes everything that is and has been, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible. A still more broad definition includes everything that has existed, exists, or will exist.}}

But Juckie are little bit more into the state of sleep because he knows how to enjoy the moment more. Cats sleep a lot , and whats going on in our brain when we sleep? Why we need to sleep at all? Brain is a organ whats growing bigger and bigger, I mean during the evolution it has happened so. How many of us use our brain in full scale?}}

| − | {{GalleryTable|GgC 7k6.JPG|Normally human body makes the organs what we dont use always smaller. I,m sure many of us dont use our brain intensively but anyway it grows bigger and bigger and we cant do anything about it.Brain growth is against our own will.Why so?}}
| |
| − | {{GalleryTable|YtC_9145.JPG| Maybe someone else is using our brain when we are in deep sleep? What's about Juckies brain? We buried him today and I noticed even cats die as it described in Tibetan book of dead. Its strange that Tibertan culture new it so well how people and other sentient beings leave this world.}}
