No, you're right. It's an exceedingly hard challenge. Last time I re-read (Carefully) the text with Joseph and his brothers it was amazing how many times he had to reassure them he wasn't holding a grudge. He made a good show at the revelation but even after that, they were worried. "After we bring back Jacob he will let the hammer down. After Jacob dies, he'll get his revenge on us." They were worried to the end. Maybe rightfully so.
It could be the challenge I described of not getting anger is one of the hardest ones a person can achieve. But it's still in there. G-d knows, anger has been a hard enough problem for me.
