This is the Year of the Monkey.
Hear no evil, See no evil, Speak no evil… Looks like a System to Us.
Rhinos enjoy advice, whether We take it or not.
Monthly Archives: February 2016
Organized Sports
Not so much for Rhinos. Our approach to games is not successful, and the rules, whatever the game, mostly seem arbitrary to Us. Why play by those rules when there are so many alternative rules all around, as any booby can see.
Also, as Anyone would tell you, We are not graceful losers
Omens & Vibrations
Even-tempered and benign as We generally are, there are things that do set Rhinos off. We are not wired to put up with absolutely Everything. Prior to the ensuing episodes, We try to give fair warning, broadcasting signals to those in the vicinity.
We might try ‘counting to ten’, but as We have said, We can’t count that high.
In crisis, Rhinos seldom remember what number comes after ‘two’.
en route
Rhinos enjoy a change of location now and then. Trying things among the Somewhere Elses of Life.
We make discoveries, encounter other cultures (Rhinoid and otherwise) and observe native customs.
Broadens our Point of View, Travel. Makes Us savvy.
If the shoe fits…
On whimsical occasions, We Rhinos like to debate about what size boot would be required to kick all the Pepper out of any of Us.
The result of these reveries is a general consensus that Nature must feel there are distinct benefits to the Rhino prickly disposition.
Which means, We are dandy as We are. Which is no surprise, right?
Cubism-ed
February 4 is Fernand Leger’s birthday, but a while ago. Still, We think highly of his painting style and rich output. Feels Rhinocerine to Us, and who would be better judges of that Essential than We are? He had what it takes to make Us tintinnabulate.
When We like ’em, We say so. Ask anybody.
Partway There
It doesn’t really matter much what the project is; We find that taking a pause midway to whatever is time well spent. Helps Us regroup and celebrate the endeavor up to the given moment.
Very pleasant, these little rituals.
Social Graces
On occasion Rhinos find themselves described as ‘antisocial’. It would be disheartening if We thought these critiques were justified.
We are a busy species, eating to maintain our stature. We are left with little time for idle pursuits. For Us, it’s all about chewing.
For Rhinos it is not easy to chew and smile at the same time. The one activity must take precedence over the other.
The Big Picture
If each Rhino is a work of art, there is an obvious issue; We present a mighty large canvas to deal with. Also, there are the gymnastics involved in applying the color.
Fortunately, Rhinos are almost all ambidextrous.
It isn’t enough to just be Visionary.
Vary Careful Listening
Not every Rhino can communicate with Rocks. Rocks give off vibrations, which is how they make their thoughts available. Not every Rhino has the patience to get the message.
RhinoRockReaders say that Rocks are most interested in their own mass; are they getting bigger or smaller, working their way to pebbleness or bolderhood? We are told that Rocks do not care which direction is their trend, but they do ponder.
One thing with Rocks, they are seldom in a hurry.
