When wrapping the power cord of a power tool around its handle, follow these steps: Hold the power tool in one hand and, with the other hand, bring the cable straight up alongside the handle. At the handle’s peak, create a loop by bringing the cable down alongside the handle. Proceed to wrap the cord around the handle from the bottom upwards. Once you reach the plug end, feed the plug through the loop created earlier. Adjust the tightness as needed by pulling the cord at the bottom. This method ensures a neat and secure cord arrangement while maintaining ease of use.
The guffaw snack bar is open for you to savor the scrumptiousness of the following joke. It’s entitled “Social Media in Real Life.”
Two friends are talking about Edwin, an acquaintance they have in common…
“I heard that Edwin has given up on social media as a New Year resolution and he’s trying to make friends outside Facebook.”
“Oh really? What’s he doing?”
“Well, he’s trying to do it like he does online. Every day, he walks down the street and tells passersby what vegan goodies he’s eaten, including showing pictures, explains how he feels, elaborates on what he did the night before, and what he will do tomorrow. Then, he shows them photos of his family, his dog-person companion, and places he has visited. He also tells them that he loves them.”
“How is it going for him?”
“It’s working. He already has three people following him— two police officers and a psychologist.”

And now we have a heartline from Hsin-I in Taiwan, also known as Formosa:
Wishing Respected and Beloved Master and the Supreme Master TV team good luck and that everything goes smoothly. Thank You, Master, for granting me the opportunity to be a host. Master has said, “[…] the hosts are important as well. She should be the carrier of positive energy that is imparted to her, before she is shown into the world. She’s not only her; she carries the loving positive energy that I want to impart to her, before she goes on air. So, she has to combine all of this as well. Beauty not just only on the inside, it has to be outside too. Especially on TV.”
Truly, it’s like that! During the preparation, I felt Master’s Blessing flowing to me continually, contained in everything. After receiving the invitation to be the host, when doing exercise on the rooftop, I suddenly saw six magpie-people flying over and dancing in the air in pairs. Seeing that for the first time, I was overwhelmed. After that, 20 more magpie-people often appeared near my place, which strengthened my vitality and courage to undertake the task. While I was praying, flocks of pigeon-people flew over my head at close range. I also saw them circling in groups in front of me, encouraging me to move ahead. Even the Sun, Moon, and stars, which I often see, appeared particularly bright, warm, spiritually alive, and loving to deepen my confidence of completing the task. Once, through the brilliant Sun, Master filled me with positive energy and spiritual bliss.
Under the loving assistance and guidance of the saints’ team, I learned and prepared. On the day of recording, the inconspicuous me seemed to have turned from an ugly duckling into a swan. Standing in front of the mirror, I couldn’t even recognize myself. After recording, I still felt full of Blessing. Thank you, the saints’ team, for your selfless dedication and loving service. In Master’s great and sacred plan, allowing a humble me to participate in the hosting work, I sincerely express my gratitude for Master’s Supreme Grace and Blessings.
May Respected and Beloved Master, under the protection of High Spirits in the Universe, always be safe, healthy, peaceful, and at ease. May Master’s will for World Vegan, World Peace be realized, and may Master’s cosmic plan be accomplished smoothly and successfully. Thankfully and with my palms joined, Hsin-I, a disciple from Taiwan (Formosa)
Contented Hsin-I, Our appreciation for your note. Your earnest devotion to be a good instrument reminds us to be grateful to the Buddha for giving us this precious opportunity to serve the world through Supreme Master Television. May you and the skillful Taiwanese (Formosan) people be forever protected by the Divine, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. Master has a loving response for you: “Fortunate Hsin-I, the Universe radiates Blessings in abundance. But to be able to receive a bit of it, we should first be a pure vessel. Continue to sincerely follow the virtuous path to progress quickly. May you and precious Taiwan (Formosa) find eternal bliss in the pursuit of Divine Grace. Love you.”
