Some critters seek a consistent Sense of Themselves. Rhinos do not spend much, if any, time on such a goal. There is just too much going on at any particular moment to stop to analyze our fitness for the dazzling Puzzle of Us. Rhinos are not here to solve the Riddle, but to Be the Riddle.
We proceed in Good Faith that Nature has done an excellent job with Us, and it will all come out Handsomely in the End. Rhinos are Nature’s playthings.
Here is a Rhino Riddle: where do all those experiences and insights We have in Dreamland go while We are waking up? Huh?
As a phenomenon, it’s Aggravating.
Each and Every Rhino is made up of a variety of Selves. Here We show: 1) the public self, 2) the social-scented self, 3) the private self, and 4) the unknowable self. Each idea tangoes with the others, having its effect, all in step.
(Yes, this is greatly simplified, but We hope the general gist is conveyed.)
Each Rhino is a lot to keep track of.
We Rhinos space out our Slumberations through the day, particularly when it gets hot. But what Your Inner Rhino wanted to point out, is that We live in two different worlds every day. When it’s bedtime, We check out of the regular day, and check into Dreamland. In the former, We feel We are in control. In the latter, We witness ourselves on a different level where We occur.
And then it’s time to Wake Up, and pick up where We left off.
Nature probably had many things in mind when creating the Wind, but one of the parts Rhinos like best is the Breeze, sneaking up and giving Us a whiff, a tiny surprise ‘hello’ from the blue.
Makes every minute an anticipatory Thrill.
Rhinos are natural collectors of Wisdom; We feel its Gravitational Pull. But one thing We must accept prior to getting even cleverer, and that is our own Ignorance. Without Ignorance, there would never be any Wisdom!
Once We understand that We don’t understand, it makes the whole process a lot easier. We can hunt around for an insight or two, and then move on from there.
That’s the Your Inner Rhino System, in action!
Weeds usually means undesirable plants, but for Rhinos, it mostly means Inedible Plants, today. Most plants need some time to get delicious, but until their moment comes, they count as Weeds.
Also, there are Weeds which Rhinos will never eat. They are there for everybody else to eat, which seems fair to Us.
All in all, Nature shoots straight.
Without mirrors, what would any of Us suppose We look like?
Rhinos (being mirrorless) assume We look great, and consequently, We’re right. And if We’re wrong, so what?
We still smell marvelous.
No matter the sincerity of the aspiration, it may be that Rhinos are not designed to Scurry. We have tried to get it, but the knack of it eludes Us. We get the best coaches and motivational speakers, but still, the only ‘A’ We ever see is for Effort.
These realizations keep our egos from getting bloated. So that’s probably a good thing.
Ah yes, it’s time to suit up for tomorrow, that day-of-days when you need your whoopee cushion, dribble glass, and exploding cigar at the ready.
A word of warning: make sure you plan a quick get-away. You may need it.
