There is a first time for everything. The more difficult the assignment seems, the less prepared any Rhino will feel.
But one day, with luck, it’s time for the big Ally-Oop, like it or not.

Recognition
Being Here Today can be seen as an Accomplishment. None of Us could explain how We managed it, but still…
Rhinos realize that most of the Accomplishment is due to the accumulated efforts of Others, some familiar, others completely unknown.
Yup.
on the tip of my…
Rhinos finds that most situations are improved by a dash of humor, no matter how simpleminded.
Once upon a time
Stories are involving, because when Rhinos encounter Stories, they transport Us to a place where We are not in fact. Indeed, We can transport ourselves with our own imagined doings, our history, our aspirations.
While We follow these fantasy stories, We are There, not Here; We are involved Elsewhere.
The question is: is that a Good Thing or a not-so-Good Thing for critters in the Wild.
Who’s in Charge here?
In the Wild, there is no Complaint Department. Complaining is virtually unknown because Nature calls the shots. We Rhinos do our best, but live with whatever turns out.
We do a lot of adjusting. Rhinos use the ingenuity Nature provides to navigate to tomorrow.
World Rhino Day 2017
Rhinos worldwide are happy to have this annual celebration, so We thank you for your kind consideration.
As you may know, Rhinos are great World Citizens, and have traveled extensively as a species. If you can go there, We’ve gone. Not that We lived Everywhere, but still, a visit is a learning opportunity. Our cup of tea.
Sadly, our thinning numbers make travel less advisable today than in the past. We do not despair; it’s not the Rhino Way.
Fancy Free
Given the choice, Rhinos usually prefer the sunny side of the street.
Yet another example of how We are wired.
Doing our bit
Rhinos are pretty sure that Hugs are universally useful. Hugs and little acts of kindness.
Seems to make sense to Us.
Too High Stakes
There is that exquisite moment when Rhinos embark on an interaction, when We can’t be sure what’s going to happen, for better or worse. Will this be the Very Best Thing ever? Will it just be One Big Uck Poo?
Rhinos prefer modest expectations. What a disappointment it would be if it were the Peak Experience of a Lifetime. What would We look forward to?
No, We are generally content with ‘Nice’ or ‘Pretty Good’, and let it go at that.
May all your days be circus days!
Of course, the circus is unlikely to show up every day. In the Wild especially. In the Wild, Never is the norm.
For that reason, Rhinos throw our own circuses, whenever We feel the urge. We are mostly both the performance and the audience; that way We know We are pleasing our crowd.
It’s the Greatest Show on Earth! For Rhinos of All Ages!
