Frustration

A quote about sensitive children, but i found it to be quite true about me.
especially recently in the job search, resume-submitting, hair-pulling-out phase of life that i am in.

Since sensitive children process things so deeply, they tend to be persistent. But their vision of how to do something perfectly can make them frustrated when they cannot achieve it, which leads to over arousal and a sense of failure, and then they want to quit and are not persistent. Or some will drop everything--not persist--if they see that someone needs or desires them to do something different.      ~Elaine N. Aron

One job application submitted for the day.
But i am so frustrated, i am heading out to the garden to kill a whole bunch of weeds instead of working on another cover letter.
