Ah yes. Time to do something to your clock so you’ll know what time it is.
We Rhinos do not tell Time, which you wouldn’t either if your counting system stopped at “three”. We just don’t require them. We know what’s what, at least to our own satisfaction.
To quote the Bard of Avon, more or less, “An Hour by any other name would smell as Sweet.”
Today, back in 1791, Vermont joined the Union. It’s called the Green Mountain State for the ridge of mountains running the length of the state.
Rhinos have lived for 50 million years, and We were in North America when the Ice Age glaciers came 2 million years ago, paring down the Green Mountains. The ice started to depart only 20 thousand years ago, leaving things the way they are today, mostly. Still impressive.
This is an unusual picture, being bi-Seasonal: Summer&Winter. YIR, awash with Pioneer Spirit.
Hello March.
Words have their uses, but Silence has its uses too. Not that the World needs to be silent, but often We Rhinos need to be silent.
We find words limiting. However apt a word may be, it ignores so many aspects of a perception. If We don’t label an Experience, We actually have the Experience.
We prefer things that way, often.
Mishaps come in many sizes and shapes, and each Mishap has a Recuperation attached to it. Those also come in a variety of sizes and shapes.
Getting reassembled takes Time, and who wants to spend it mending? When a Rhino is the Patient, it is not easy to be Patient.
In the Wild, the only comfort is considering that things could be Much Worse.
‘Your Inner Rhino’ assumes that our Readers would like an acknowledgement of Sir Alexander Fleming, who discovered Penicillin 90 years ago, today. It has helped many ailing people over the years, dealing with bacterial infection.
Rhinos do not have medicine in the Wild, not as you know it. Ours is all about herbs, timing, and endurance: all Natural. It works for Us- because it must.
We congratulate Sir Alex for saving the day, over and over again.
When a Rhino goes to the beach, which We do not do often, We try to recall that it pays to check what the Tides are up to.
Tides can rise pretty quick, and for tentative swimmers like Rhinos, We’d like to skip unnecessary challenges.
We leave Questionable Adventures to others.
Misunderstandings do arise from time to time. Even for Rhinos with Generally Good Intentions.
Establishing a Misunderstanding requires very little Effort. However, maintaining one takes Two at least.
Mostly. That is the Rhino Experience, anyway.
Here at “Your Inner Rhino” We get many requests for Vegetable Recommendations. We hate to disappoint, but We eat so many different plants! And our system is dictated by scent, not nomenclature.
Besides, We don’t see any species of plant as a solitary plant. We catalog plants by their age and consequent flavor profile. Plants sprout, mature, flower, fruit, go to seed, etc., each phase involving a new savory distinction.
We bring all our critical faculties to Dining Science. Our system is to nibble, and if that goes all right, then to consume as much as the situation or our disposition allows. Then We are ready for the Next Course.
The Staff of ‘Your Inner Rhino’ is taking off for a few days to reconstitute ourselves, exploring ill-defined goals, and like that.
We are leaving you Readers with our Fond Regards and Very Best Wishes, until Monday at the latest.
We would be presumptuous to tell y’all to Behave until then, but We do point out that it is One Option.
Your Inner Rhino
