love is the heartbeat of Yijing

Yijing teaches us to be good, to be strong internally, and to be in harmony with nature.

So where does love fit into this?

Love is actually the hidden energy behind all three.

When Yijing talks about being good, it isn’t moral preaching.
It means your intentions must be pure.

When your heart carries love, real love for people, for your work, for life, your actions become upright, your decisions become clearer, and your results become smoother.

Love guides goodness.

When Yijing talks about being internally strong, that strength is not toughness.
It is stability.

A person full of love is emotionally steady.
Love calms the mind, relaxes the body, and keeps your Qi flowing smoothly.
That is true inner strength, a strength that cannot be shaken by circumstances.

When Yijing talks about harmony with nature, it means aligning with the natural flow of life.
Love is the highest form of alignment.

When your heart is warm, open, and connected, you sense timing better, you interact with others more authentically, and you move with the natural rhythm instead of forcing things.
Love creates harmony.

So love is not an extra element added to Yijing.
Love is the Qi that powers goodness, the balance that sustains inner strength, and the warmth that creates harmony with heaven, earth, and people.

In other words, love is the heartbeat of Yijing.

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...
