I disagree.
Valid reasons for being hurt, angry, wounded, etc.
But bitterness is hurt and anger that festers long enough to become bitterness.
And Paul's standard for forgiveness was "let not the sun go down upon your wrath."
You'll find Jesus holding it up there pretty high too, what with the 70 X 7 ratio, and that in one day.
NO excuse or valid reason for bitterness, ever. Deal with hurt and anger before it becomes bitterness.
