Is it more difficult to forgive someone who has anger in the heart than someone else who has grief in the heart as a consequence of unfair treatment?
Both can be challenging. I believe that it is more difficult to forgive when the anger is really strong, in the form of an ongoing resentment, which might be accompanied, at least at times for some people, by hatred. Some people are so furious that they cannot even use the term “forgiveness” because it makes their anger worse. When people experience intense grief, they also may have a lack of energy and require some time to adjust. During these periods, it is essential to be gentle with oneself as one navigates the process of grief.
