Only Love

by Nana Mouskouri

We visited my mum again today. She has now developed a nasty sounding cough and we were and are a bit worried. However, she made me really think when I asked whether she felt tired. She said that she feels her powers waning and she only has energy to love. She said that she does not have anyone to hate and she wants to use all that she now has just to love. She especially loves her family, those alive as well as those who have already left us. I am still overwhelmed by the ultimate beauty of her thoughts.
