Hansel and Gretel is power-packed with highlight moments, of which one has to be the discovery of the Gingerbread House. Hansel and Gretel do their very best to polish it off.
A feature of this tale is that the reader does not need to be hungry at all to understand the children’s fervor. All critters know what it is to go crazy in the face of Temptation.
Nibble, nibble, little mouse, Who is gobbling up my house?
Home Ownership v. Enterprising Youth.
Hansel and Gretel’s #1 problem is, they are starving. In the Wild, sometimes there just are no roots and berries, nor anything else. It impairs any critter’s judgment. Even ours.
Rhinos never get lost in the woods, or anywhere, because 1) We can smell our way back to basecamp, and 2) We don’t fret much about where We are headed anyway. If We had breadcrumbs, We’d eat them. Duh.
Supposing Hansel and Gretel were Rhinos, they would have to be cousins or pals. By the time a sibling shows up, like 3 years, the difference in age is prohibitive to getting into trouble together. Rhino foolishness is age-specific.
Your Inner Rhino, unexpected lessons lurking, with more to come. You’re welcome.
In the Wild, We rhinos have no names for things or phenomena. We acknowledge them, but do not limit them with words. Why make the effort to contain Being? Definition simply stops Us from seeing or thinking or perceiving.
Talk about odd…
Less may be more, but More is also more. Indubitably, right?
Your Inner Rhino, telling it like We see it!
Rhinos are pretty lighthearted about changing direction as We parade through Life. Go this way or that, nobody is likely to notice, muchless mind.
Everyone else is far too busy changing lanes on their own.
Rhinos enjoy a change of location now and then. Trying things among the Somewhere Elses of Life.
We make discoveries, encounter other cultures (Rhinoid and otherwise) and observe native customs.
Broadens our Point of View, Travel. Makes Us savvy.
On whimsical occasions, We Rhinos like to debate about what size boot would be required to kick all the Pepper out of any of Us.
The result of these reveries is a general consensus that Nature must feel there are distinct benefits to the Rhino prickly disposition.
Which means, We are dandy as We are. Which is no surprise, right?
It doesn’t really matter much what the project is; We find that taking a pause midway to whatever is time well spent. Helps Us regroup and celebrate the endeavor up to the given moment.
Very pleasant, these little rituals.
We thought that perhaps the YIR Reader might assume that Rhinos are outstanding day and night, just as part of the Natural Order.
That is not the case. We have to work at it daily and hourly.
Practice makes perfect.
How We Rhinos arrive at our Noteworthy Thinkings is an almost poetic combination of Logic and Inspiration. In various proportions, depending on the topic of discussion.
We do not blush easily, We Rhinos.
