Mr. Nicolaus Copernicus (b.1473) found out that the planets go around the sun. It was a big discovery, though unpopular at the time.
What’s surprising is that he made his observations with the naked eye, no telescope at all. The skies over Poland must be very clear.
Rhino vision is not outstanding, so We are doubly-wowed. Visionary guy, Mr. Copernicus.
Rhinos yawn because We can. What yawns accomplish is a mystery.
Yawns are sort of fun, so that’s a good thing.
Today Your Inner Rhino applauds the remarkable work of Harry Clarke (b.1889). Not only was he a gifted Irish illustrator, but he was also a prolific designer of stained glass windows. Much of his work can seem gloomy, but it is undeniably ravishing.
Rhinos love stained glass. We like to see the sunlight pouring through the images.
It’s one reason you may have noticed Us in church, when the weather is fair.
Doubt is a key ingredient to Rhino Thought. We think We know something, but then again, maybe We left out some data, or a bit of wisdom which would sway our Conclusions.
So We pause for a jiffy to weigh the situation.
Rhinos can usually spare the time.
Mr. Galilei (b. 1564) said (in Italian): I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use. This seems inspirational to Rhino Mental Flexibility, which is indispensable, especially in trying times.
Galileo also made many inventions and observations about his world, leaps of imagination and faith in his own gifts. Inner Rhino on the job, right?
This is also National Gumdrop Day. Observe it in a way that suits you.
Sending all Your Inner Rhino Readers a token of our affectionate regard…
On tiptoe comes Your Inner Rhino, to steal your heart away…
Making Valentines is demanding; We go through a lot of red crayons as We scribble. We don’t begrudge the labor, but the effort makes our crayon supplies lop-sided.
Fortunately, here comes March, when We use up the green crayons for St. Patrick’s Day… and so on and so forth.
Rhinos like to look on the Bright Side.
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. It’s always a demanding time for Rhinos. Much preparation.
We are affectionate by Nature.
An intriguing phenomenon is that each Rhino gets a Here to work with, usually accompanied by a Now.
Everywhere We look there are lots of Theres, near and far. Whatever they have to recommend them, those Theres aren’t Here. That is how We tell them apart.
A Rhino just sashays up to a There, and Presto, it’s a Here.
Your Inner Rhino
