Rhino Minds are notorious for our Amazing Agility. An idea pops up, ricochets around the rink like a hockey puck, and We are off to the races!
One part of the mind goes one place, and fifteen other parts go to sixteen other places. What it lacks in organization, this system makes up for in Enthusiasm and Cunning. Of a seldom-discussed sort.
It’s pretty thrilling being Us. Right?
‘Your Inner Rhino’, exploring that peculiar terrain where our sleeping selves go for a visit, in between times. Our other selves.
Most of the time, Rhinos are in command of ourselves. We attend to business. We function.
But now and again a Rhino may wander onto mental turf where things are less predictable.
Ya know?
Persistent inquiries into Rhino Boudoir Proceedings have prompted Us at “Your Inner Rhino” to address the matter in ways familiar to our Readers.
We have enlisted recognized traditional authorities to elucidate, and feel that should be sufficient for our Readers’ needs.
Let’s all press on to other less ticklish matters.
Asking permission is not a priority when it’s mealtime- for Rhinos. We see the intended meal, and We eat it. If thanks are involved, they are to Nature’s bounty and provision.
We feel that way about many things; our own permission is the primary issue. If We feel all right about something, then why fuss?
Honestly.
Now and then Rhinos overload. Or as We say,
A case of Enough’s Enough.
Even for Us Rhinos, today can’t always be the very Most Delightful Day that Ever Was. It can seem unfair, but there it is.
But there is one sure-fire remedy, an option Rhinos call Concertina Power, which is the Uplift that music can offer the Dilapidated Spirit.
The actual instrument is not necessary, but the Will to get happy is. Humming can do the trick all by itself.
Rhinos like to think We know where We’re going, and We strut out on Life’s Boulevards accordingly. But as often as not, We find that either 1) We didn’t know where We were going or 2) things have gotten changed around somehow. Either, or both, ideas could be true.
The most Useful, and least often Used, Solution is to ask directions along the route. Most Natives will tell Us the way, assuming they know it themselves.
Lessons in Humility are probably good for Rhinos, even if We don’t like them much.
Rhinos are vigorous critters. We have a lot to do and We get on with it, whatever it may be. Alert? Think Rhino.
But that only accounts for one Level of Awareness. On other levels, We Philosophize, Envision, and Opine. Likewise, We attend to our frame of mind, tweaking it where necessary, enjoying it otherwise.
Pampering is one of those projects which works best for Us when We attend to ourselves. A moment or two of psychogical “Me Time” can oil our gears nicely.
Today We salute Ohio’s 1803 admission as one of the United States of America. We assume this recognition was an achievement of some sort for somebody.
What Rhinos are confused about is: what was Ohio before it got recognized? We don’t see how it changed based on an announcement.
However, We Rhinos don’t pretend to understand every little thing.
