Well, as a fan of German football I am quite frustrated, yes.. but that's football. Actually I did missed the live telecast so the frustration is somewhat lessened. No ashamed in losing to a better side anyway. Better by means of a more balanced team in term of footballing sense. 
Bayern might have a more positive approach, more attacking minded than their Italian counterpart but to be fair, football is not just about attacking. Inter was very brilliant, very determined and focused in defense, just like what they did aganst Barca, an unarguably better attacking team than Bayern is. Ironically, (Diego) Milito also showed what is always regarded as a 'German' virtue: efficiency at the very best. He got 2 shots on goal, 2 being on target, which resulted in yes, 2 goals.In the end, congrats and hats-off to Inter. Deserved winner and a worthy champion. Bayern, on the other hand, did not have to be too disappointed with the result. They won the 1.BL & the Pokal and the runners-up of the CL and that is quite an achievement.
World Cup is next.
// An interesting fact is that Inter, being an Italian champion, featured no Italian in their 1st team of CL Final. Bayern, as a comparison, have five German internationals starting.
