What is FRUSTRATION ???

Hi friends I got an e-mail asking what is Frustration and wheather Frustration and Anger are similar.
So here is what I feel for it.

Frustration: Lets see its other states in which they affect us, they are disappointment, despair, hopelessness, discouragement, depression. But the real question is how does it find its way into our mind which sets our emotion/feeling.

Let's take an example, say if I give you an orange seed and ask it to plant it, what shall you do? 
You will take up the seed, prepare the soil with some manure and sow the seed in it, water it everyday with a hope that in few days it will sprout with some leaves. Everyday in the morning you water it and feel for it that okay tomorrow it shall bloom up.
5 days have passed and there is no result, you'll feel okay it's just 5 days what happens in that lets wait for some more time and went ahead. 5 more days have passed and still no result and you are now in a thinking mode "is it aright means is the seed rightly placed hmmm... Let's wait for some more time". 
10 more days have passed and here you are again with no result. Probably now you are thinking that what's wrong with it, are things really working, should I dig in and unearth what's going on or should I just watch it like a fool, somehow you managed to convince yourself to wait do some more days. 10 more days have passed and you are now out of your mind thinking I( the seed giver) am probably be the stupid out of us.
Now after this long time I gave you a call to find out whats is the progress and you got a chance to shower your rebuke. After you are empty with the whole story and emotions and explaining my stupidity I asked a question " Did you peel of the thin skin of the seed before sowing?".
Now you are astounded, surprised and said "What"?

Now here could you see the array of emotions:
OBEDIENCE, HOPE, DOUBT, DISAPPOINTMENT, HOPELESSNESS, DEPRESSION, ANGER.

That's how Mr. Frustration affect us, it first kills our hope and leave us with its sisters Disappointment and Hopelessness which eventually leads us to the Divorce of Anger and we get finished.

So here we see Anger is not frustration but it's a byproduct of it.
