During the night before December 21, an hour into the mountains north of Montreal where my brother-in-law (BIL) lives, about 60cm of snow fell. Also, because of high winds and the weight of all the wet heavy snow, a large pine tree fell over onto their house. It didn't crush the house or anything, but it sure scared the crap out of everyone. The following day they spent at home waiting for the snow removal people to show up but they never came. And it continued to snow. My son is up there at the moment without the boots I bought for him the previous day.
So they called a little while ago to explain that they have no electricity, which in their case also means no water, and no food. They also have to shovel everything out by hand because the truck for the snow removal isn't working too well. So I asked them exactly what they needed, what was their plan, and said I would come right away with whatever was necessary. So they discussed it and called me back, saying I didn't need to come. The electricity is back, the neighbour took my BIL to the store where he bought ham and bread, the truck has begun making progress and they will start dealing with the tree.
Well now they called again, asking if I am still willing to go, because they no longer have anything to eat, the truck is not able to do the snow job - basically they need help. But I can't leave right away because my wife left with the car to finish up her Christmas shopping after we were told everything was okay. So now I am just waiting for her to get back before I load up the car with shovels (and my son's boots), purchase some food for everyone and drive up into the mountains.
The irony of all this is that this is my BIL who turned away from truth seeking to follow his desire for pleasure seeking. He didn't like the "negative" subjects discussed by the C's and SOTT. He wanted to get back that amazing, euphoric feeling he had when he first started waking up, so he is now drowning in the new age movement. Every time I see him he tries to convince me I am doing something wrong by "obsessing" about negative things, and that studying conspiracies causes me to "give my energy to the conspiracy and therefore become part of it". And the best part is the whole deal about how following the new age paradigm creates some kind of protection from negative things for the follower.
Well, I am happy to run up there and help. I'm glad I bought the 4WD vehicle in September because I never would have been able to help if I still had the little Civic. But most of all, I'm wondering if my BIL will have any inkling whatsoever that this whole event might just be the universe talking to him?
Probably not, but I hope so.
