I actually don't believe forgiveness is always useful. Some things should not be forgiven, others maybe but only if the other asks for it and finally it isn't my job to forgive, I leave that to the higher power.
However we can show compassion and tough love. We can consider forgiveness if another asks for it.
I do think shame, guilt and letting go of resentment are models of greatness.
We can feel compassion for some of the jerk stuff we see and hear, these deluded impoverished souls need every ounce of it.
At the end of it all the power is with the thriver.
