WOHAINI

This is a tongue-in-cheek short blog about Love.

I hear people say, “Love is the answer”. I jokingly ask, “What was the question?”

“Wo Hai Ni” is “I Love You” in Mandarin.

Days go by easier when we surround ourselves with Love and with Loved Ones. To get Love, give Love.

I have a backstage anecdote to share. Once I was asked by Nicole Scherzinger to help her say something in Mandarin to her local audience. I suggested “Nee How Mah” (“How are you?”) and “Wo Hai Ni” (“I Love You”). I was sitting casually on the floor while she was on her chair by the dressing table. I must admit I made her say “Wo Hai Ni” to me more than necessary.

When she uttered those phrases to her audience, they predictably went wild. After she said those phrases, she looked towards me and I gave her two thumbs up.

Although Love is essential in all relationships, may I add one more crucial ingredient? RESPECT.

When you have Love, you walk contentedly. However, with Respect, you walk with a bounce in your step. Immerse yourself with friends who accord you Respect.
