This red panda has just seen something on a rock. Because of the way the panda is acting, it is probably something new, perhaps an insect -- something that the panda has never seen before. Perhaps the rock itself is new.

Let's be clear: this is a very cute GIF (look at those paws). However, it also awakened in me an uncomfortable feeling of solidarity.

You see, this panda is reacting to this small obstacle the same way I also might react to a small obstacle -- an unexpected rain shower, for example, or a brief train delay, or that thing where my sock slips off my heel and floats around inside my shoe.

This red panda -- if only for an instant -- is completely overwhelmed.

But life goes on, after all. The rain stops. The train will eventually come. At some point, I will learn to wear different socks with those shoes.

And this red panda will get used to whatever is going on with this rock.
