Coincidentally…

 

 

Today is National Healthcare Decisions Day (fact). The main idea is to get paperwork shipshape for “later”, when folks would want it. Rhinos do not have any paperwork, as our Readers doubtless know.

The idea of this holiday seemed to Us to be best expressed through making decisions Today about Today. The Healthcare in question being our own for ourselves today. Good advice, put into practice.

Seems obvious, right?

Recollecting

The question today is: Why does anybody expect a Thought to be worth holding onto? Rhinos are constantly being Reminded to Recall something, usually in the face of having obviously not recalled it recently.

Rhino minds are not composed to please anybody else. It’s all We can do to figure out what would please Us, and then get on with it.

There’s only so much Room for Thought, and that room is usually a mess. Ask anybody.

Predictable Surprises…

Rhinos do not like to fuss unnecessarily. It makes for indigestion and weight loss. All bad things for Rhinos.

That said, a little common sense comes in handy, when We remember to trot it out. Common Sense is uncommon, no more so than when We tend to ourselves. Or less so. ?

Anyway, what We can mention is, when you go to the beach, pay attention to the Tides. They come in faster than you assume.

Going Up

 

Most critters have some sort of vocal range. Rhinos do too. Our ability to produce sound is related to what another Rhino can hear, obviously. (Rhinos do not sing to hyenas, right?)

For our Readers, high C is about it, so We are showing that as a communication device. Rhinos can squeak higher, but only under extreme duress. The Wild can provide that sort of duress, believe Us.

By the way, high notes take practice. Lots of it.

Hippity Hoppity

Holidays have special traditions, and Rhinos have always been delighted to assist the E.Bunny Delivery System. Such undertakings involve E.Bunny Managers and a mighty Work Force, among whom Rhinos number ourselves. A lot of bustle, We must say.

There are Bunny Trail Rules for Us Assistants, such as: 1) don’t squeeze the eggs, 2) no loud giggling, and 3) no hopping.

Bunnies are high-strung; they put up with no comedy when it’s Show Time. But then, neither does Santa.

In Perpetuity

True Fact: Each and every Rhino is always changing. We go to bed one thing, and awake another. We go to bed somebody else. Better or worse is not the point here, just the inevitability of change.

We can only conclude that this is how Nature has Us mapped out. This is the plan, whether Rhinos notice it moment to moment, or not.

This way, there is no point in getting too snarled up about anything. Inside, outside, We are about to be somebody else.

at the zoo

Zoos introduce the Public to all sorts of critters. The Public sees that We have feelings and needs. All in all, a Tidy Experience.

Life in the Wild is different. The element of hazard is more dynamic and the resident is challenged to respond to Nature. Immediately. Naturally.

We Rhinos notice that there is little Wild left to inhabit. Although the scale of things varies, We Rhinos are always in the Zoo. Fact.
