Frustration and Impatience

"Cindy's Afternoon Storm" by Drew John Tankersley

Happy sez-  Last post we talked a little bit about frustration, a large and well, frustrating subject -  but we did not talk about some of the related things that often accompany or surround frustration.  While these things can number in the many and are dependent on the situation and can come and go, I think one of the foremost of these things is impatience.  Impatience is very often accompanied by frustration.  One, I believe, can create the other, almost in a self-perpetuating cycle. Slow down or stop one side and you stop the cycle, one of those things that is easy to say but very often hard to do.  One might try to take oneself out of the cycle by changing the frame of reference, the reality, in which that cycle exists.  If your impatience then know and expect that things are going to frustrate you and by knowing that in advance it allows you to say  I'm going to be frustrated and that gives you the opportunity to deal with it before it happens, then the cycle is starting to break.

Happy sez-  Frustration is an interesting phenomena, it comes in all types, degrees and sources.  It can be big or small, devastating or, well just frustrating. Sometimes frustration will come often, all day long, one thing after another - nothing big you understand - but never stopping, you go to get something, it's not there, you go to get some back up and it's empty, your pen is out of ink and you get another one, but it breaks as soon as you use it.  See what I mean, It never seems to end.  Then there are the big things, the life threatening things - getting your cancer treated only to find you have heart trouble, getting your heart worked on then finding you have kidney failure.  So it's true frustration can come in many ways, in many forms but if we take it in stride, as well as we can, and not allow the frustration of being frustrated to get to us, then we'll be the better for it  And if we can do that, that will be good.

Happy sez-  Frustration, like energy can come in many forms, from many sources and in many degrees on many levels, but frustration, which can never really be controlled, will rarely accomplish much in the way of  a
