I think it definitely applies to a lot of our step situations...

"Vengeance only begets vengeance. It is a destructive cycle. But when you forgive, you inspire change in both yourself and the other. Forgiveness has the power to transform people and create better world for all."

I found that statement true when it came to my xh just after our divorce. We were in such a battle we could not see how it was a bad cycle. Finally I stopped it by saying I was not out to harm anymore, only take care of the kids' health and happiness. Slowly his hackles came down and he is now actually sort of pleasant towards me.
