Rhinos are what We eat, no two ways about it. Fact.
Period.
In the Wild, all Rhino Senses need to be in good shape, most essentially smell and hearing. The Wild is rich with layer upon layer of source material, both animal and vegetable. We need to be alert and responsive.
Any help We can manage is well worth the effort. The Wild needs attention and cunning, plus a fair assessment of the playmates, visible or not.
Too True.
Smell is the Rhino primary key to functioning. Having noses of such elaborate sensitivity and discernment is mostly great. We don’t show off, but We can sniff like nobody’s business. We are used to sorting one aroma from another, as the Wild is made up of thousands of different whiffs, each bearing mucho info.
That does not mean that every breeze is delightful.
Rhinos have our own version of “Yuck”, and need it.
It’s true that We Rhinos are full of Vitality, but Vim and Vigor have to come from somewhere, right? Right. And the source is the Ground We walk on. Anywhere that’s Natural, We get a boost through the soles of our feet. We connect with the primary Source.
The earth is our Battery, our Power Source. And as far as We can tell, it never fails to deliver.
It is why We don’t wear shoes. Well, one reason. The other is, We have no shoes.
Long since, We Rhinos concluded that Nature had no intention whatever of Rhinos being Perfect. Consequently, We are appealingly slapdash.
And a good thing too. If Rhinos were all Perfect, there would be next-to-no way to tell one of Us from another.
By the present system, We get more varied approaches to the Matters at Hand. Which may account for something spectacular, at least We hope so.
Hippocrates of Kos (b. 460 bce) is widely acknowledged as the Father of Medicine. His ideas of how folk got sick, and what might help them out are still applauded and honored.
Rhinos are definitely pro-Hippocrates, as he saw the relationship between diet and health as important. Plus a little encouragement and patience.
Quote: The best remedy in many cases, is to do nothing. That’s our kind of doctor. Of course, Rhinos don’t often have another option.
November 1 is World Vegan Day. For Rhinos, every day is Vegan Day, that being all We eat.
We would be happy to show you Readers the Rhino Veggie Dance, but you can imagine it; it’s a bunch of jolly writhing, wriggling, stomping and chomping. It is not formalized, it’s spontaneous.
Veggies do that to Us. Also, they sustain Us.
Sometimes Rhinos overhear snide remarks about our being fat or awkward. In the Wild, no critter is ever fat; We eat to survive.
We come in a bulky package, it’s true. In our case, Bulk is a sign of glowing health and vigor. That’s the design Nature assigned for Us. We eat hearty or We die.
The standard to which Rhinos adhere is Natural; We own no mirrors.
