All There Is

What my father said near the end, in a moment of clarity, and the only thing it leaves you with.

A few days before my dad died, he had it all figured out.

Dementia and Alzheimer’s had taken most of him by then. He spoke in riddles. Then, in a moment of clarity, he said:

All there is, is love.

Without ego, without worry, without judgement, without spite — what is left?

Love.

Without fear, without pride, without anger, without hate — what is left?

Love.

All there is, is love.
