Most People Don't Share, They Preach

Sharing is not Preaching.  Most people don't know how to share, instead of sharing they preach and this angers people. Preaching is more than sharing, it is about trying to convince, persuade or move people to your way of thinking. 

Sharing is about sharing from your heart what you sincerely believe to be true AT THIS POINT OF TIME.  What Sharing is about: 

  1. What You believe to be true.  However, if you already know that what you share is not true and you still share it, that is not sharing.  That is cheating
  2. Something that you may or not may have in interest in. I own the Amethyst geode here and like to share this with you. 
  3. What you think and feel.  It is not about sharing what you know a lot and have expert knowledge in it.  What you share may not be the truth.  Many a times people share fake news for they don't know that fake news is not true, but they believe to be true. 
  4. Even when you did not own it or intend to own it.  So I don't have to actually intend to buy iPhone 13 to share the goodness of iPhone 13
  5. Regardless of whether people believe you or not.  What is important that the person sharing it believes it. Many people said they don't want to share because they say others don't believe in what they share.  This is a wrong understanding of sharing. 

    This is my sharing today. Do share it to help people. Thanks

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
