I always look for the lessons in problems. Recently I realized the lesson was to loosen the need for control. It was a situation that I had little control over, and that lack of control was frustrating. As time went on, I finally realized that this was a situation where I would not have much control, and a situation where it wasn't worth risking the good in life to gain control. The lesson was to loosen my grip, appreciate the freedom that less control sometimes provides, and get a broader perspective of the situation.
So now at the other side of the frustration, what's next? I'll likely head out to the garden early to lay some paths, weed, and support a few budding vegetable plants with water and perhaps some Neem oil to ward off harmful insects. Onward.
