Today, being March 31, We Rhinos bid adieu to this month, and welcome the next. BaaaaaaaBye, We say.
We don’t think of these transitions as a Loss. We liked March all right, but have to acknowledge that April has potential. We like to be upbeat.
Natural Curiosity is getting the better of Us.
Tooting our own Horn (tired Rhino joke) seems permissible now and again, right? “Your Inner Rhino” happily announces our 2,000th Post!!
Since October 20, 2014 We have achieved over 100% delivery, even given some vacations and the occasional lapse.
Of course, there’s no group as stupendous as our Readers, and We thank you for your encouragement. Sincerely.
If you loved the post on March 3 (and who wouldn’t?) here is another.
‘Your Inner Rhino’ helps our Readers keep their minds elastic.
You’re Welcome.
Rhinos don’t actually live in houses, in the Wild. We may locate ourselves near a shrub, or in a gully, or in the field, but otherwise, no house.
Still, sometimes Circumstances force Us to stay where We are, for the moment. Sometimes the moments become a chore.
Rhinos are a tough crew, and although We may mutter, We do our best to play by the rules.
Rhinos are lucky in our Ancestry, 50 million years of it. That is because Rhino Ancestors do not relate to an Earthly Time Continuum. Our Ancestors can appreciate the Future as well as the Past.
That does not mean the Ancestors bother with details. The Ancestors are here to help Us to be true to our RhinoHeart. Guidance and Influence. Also encouragement.
The Intensity of our Rhino Mission does not change with something as minor as Time.
We Rhinos were surprised to learn that there is a word for the Rhino Communications Systems: Kinesics. It means an expressive system, using no Words whatever. Rhinos, and many other critters, are adept at Kinesics.
We are good at practicing it, and good at reading it from others. All it takes is a little attention to detail, and We all know what We all are thinking and doing… or about to do.
Some do not associate Aromatics with Kinesics, but Rhinos can’t imagine why not. Maybe it’s an Official Oversight somewhere along the line?
Rhinos are what We eat, no two ways about it. Fact.
Period.
2 is the number between 1 and 3. It is also where most Rhinos would calibrate their state of mind, in general. Neither comatose nor hyper-driven. Cruise control.
We mention this in relation to “Going Crazy”. For Rhinos, the odds are just as good of “Going Sane”. Since neither alternative occurs that often, We don’t spend a lot of time evaluating. We Cruise.
Somewhere between Neutral and Natural.
Days come in many flavors, at least Rhino days do. Mostly We are ready to wrastle the situation into submission, but there are times where We need to wrastle ourselves into submission. To get an Attitude Adjustment.
One way to achieve this transformation is through interesting Image Tinkering. For Us, this is relatively easy, since none of our outfits are real; they are achievements of Imagination.
We spend a moment or two on the project, then strut forth to greet the day, whatever its merits.
Happily, there are no Detour signs in the Wild since We in the Wild can’t read.
The bigger thing is that We Rhinos are unpredictable in getting from where We are to the next place where We’ll be. We each wander at will, for our own odd reasons, and in our own good time.
A Detour only works if you have a Destination in the first place. Rhinos seldom do.
