I was hurt by a family member yesterday. It was so unfair. I value forgiveness, but I am not at all ready to forgive. Should I start on the forgiveness path today, even through I am quite angry right now? Maybe my anger is a problem.
It is legitimate to feel angry soon after a serious injustice has occurred. The anger shows you that you know right from wrong and that you should not be treated unfairly. A key here is to not let the anger linger because it could last a very long time, which may end up hurting you. So, take some time to be angry, but also have the idea of forgiveness in mind so that, after a period of legitimate anger, you can then, through your own free will, forgive the family member.
