Facing life problems from nature’s perspective

I came across this interesting image on a social media post.

In the image, escaping from such a situation is impossible. Now look closely.

1) Snakes do not prey on humans so no snake will lie waiting for the dangling guy.
2) Male lions do not participate in hunting unless the lion pride is hunting a large prey such as a buffalo. A male lion would rather spend its time eating, sleeping or mating rather than wait for the dangling guy who is hardly a prey for it.
3) No woodcutter in the right frame of mind will cut a tree standing at the edge of a river infested with crocodiles and cut in such a way that the tree will fall into the river.

The point here is,
1) When problems come in life, we will feel overwhelmed thinking of all the problems when in reality some problems may not exist at all if we can evaluate the problems with a rational mind.
2) We think some problems in life are like the snake and the lion but they may not be big problems. Problems in life are only as big as we think they are.
3) When there are many problems we do not need to evaluate every problem with the aim of finding a solution for it. Many of the problems could simply go away when some of the problems are solved.
