What if you can't (fully) let go of something that ended well?
What if let's say someone abused another person, then made it up for it and the 2 now have a healthy relationship. But the former abuse can't help but still feel grudge against the other, even if it's in the past. 
What if the abuser can't let go of what they did, even if they're mostly happy?
Or what if you can't let go of a car accident, even if everybody who got hurt healed just fine, at least physically, or didn't get hurt at all?

That's a whole lot of "what if's"  with the outcomes all negative.

What if the person has an industrial lobotomy accident and can't remember a damn thing to be upset about?

You need to start being grateful for what you've got and mindful living in the present.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
