The Relationship that Most Don't Want to Talk About

Many people hear the term “Love Intelligence” and immediately think it’s about romance or relationships between couples.

But the truth is far deeper.

All love is about relationships —

and the most important relationship is the one we have with ourselves.
we must first learn how to relate to ourselves with honesty, compassion, and courage.

CARE
When you care for your own thoughts and emotions,
you naturally become more understanding toward others.

COURAGE
to correct ourselves,
and to do the right thing even when it is uncomfortable.
A courageous heart inspires courageous relationships.

CONNECTION
when you can connect your thoughts, emotions, and actions.
Only then can you build meaningful connections with people around you.
you don't just build better relationships at home or at work —
you build a better you.

And that transforms every relationship in your life.
It is about becoming a stronger, kinder, and more courageous human being…
so that every relationship you touch becomes richer and more meaningful.

Before we can lead others, influence others, or even understand others,

That is why Love Intelligence is built on the 3Cs:

Care begins with self-awareness and self-respect.

Courage is the ability to be honest with ourselves,

Connection starts within —

When you master the 3Cs,

Love Intelligence is not about romance.

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...
