However, well-intentioned, this will put us in the ditch. Anger is a normal response to injustice. To be angry at someone doesn\u2019t mean we don\u2019t love them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">It is not angry that is the problem.

Anger that isn\u2019t dealt with in healthy ways will turn septic quickly &#8211; bitterness. Bitterness makes it impossible to love our enemies and many others as well. \u00a0In some cases, bitterness can overtake a person&#8217;s life that can poison relationships with those closest to us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">One way through our anger is<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"http:\/\/iamsignificant.ca\/sole-significance\/breaking-free-from-bitterness-the-transforming-power-of-forgiveness\/\"> forgiveness. I know&#8230; easier said than done<\/a><\/span><\/span>. What has helped me realize that forgiveness must never be conflated with the idea that what has happened is somehow okay or all-of-a-sudden right? \u00a0Nor does it mean we have to trust those who have hurt us (again).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Forgiveness of others is a gift that we give to ourselves.

It is the practice and process of releasing our unattainable desire for a different past, action, and consequence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">We can also consider healthy ways that we can address the injustice with the people and situations involved.
