Hooray for all of Us.

On the Road Again
We are taking a Your Inner Rhino break, and will assemble back in the office early next week. Keep the faith, Pardners.
Calendars don’t make a lot of sense since Rhinos can’t count, but you get the idea…
One of a Kind Treasure Maps
We Rhinos are pretty certain that within each of Us, there is access to a unique place We might refer to as ‘Never Never Before Land’. It’s an expression of the cumulative Adventure each of Us enjoys as a Rhino. It is the singular perfect setting for the perfect singular Us.
We find the idea comforting, not to mention invigorating.
The On Switch
Today is Michelangelo da Caravaggio’s birthday, b. 1571. He was a fine painter, specializing in the drama of his subjects, enhanced by strong directional lighting. Both Rembrandt and Rubens felt his influence in their paintings.
What We Rhinos can contribute to this topic is, it takes a lot of light to make a crisp shadow. You can’t have one without the other, as with so many things in life. Jot that profundity down, for future reference.
YIR strikes again.
Rhino Lullaby
When We sleep, Rhinos dream. However, it has become clear to Us that there is a difference between our dreams and those of the Readership.
When Rhinos dream, the primary communication is via Scent, not vision. Seldom do Rhinos wake with an image. We wake with Scent-sations, some of which come by nose, but others also come through our ears, our mouths, and the bottoms of our feet.
There seems to be plenty of room for both ways of dreaming, and after all, what choice does anyone have about it?
(For more on this topic, see November 8, 2014 via the YIR Archive.)
The Chicken and the Egg
Rhinos sometimes wonder if Imagination is the big mover and shaker of our awareness. Perhaps We do not create or employ our Imaginations; perhaps our Imaginations create and define Us.
There is a mind-meld going on there somehow, but how it works is baffling. When Your Inner Rhino figures it out, We’ll let you know right away.
Honest.
for the Bunny Enthusiast
We Rhinos like to imagine what life in another lane would look like. If We were rabbits, would We still be Rhinos? What differences are involved in fluffy tails? What’s it like to have front teeth? Is hopping all it’s cracked up to be?
These musings may not actually transform Us into bunnies, but they do remind Us of Rabbit Power and Outstandingness. So that is a good thing.
Talk Like a Pirate Day
Talking is good, but making other Piratical noises is also acceptable.
Ahoy and Avast, y’Swab!
Dealing with the Calendar
Get bakin’!
Or, at the very least, gobble up an apple!
Guten Tag!
Today is the kickoff for Oktoberfest, a Bavarian celebration of selfhood and solidarity and other merry bits and pieces of daily life. It all lasts roughly two weeks, just making it into October itself (or Oktober, if you prefer.)
Rhinos enjoy these sorts of shindigs. It’s easy to blend in and wander about. Of course, We are good at that anyway, but still the hubbub is jolly.
Rhinos like Jolly. And Pretzels.
