How is self-forgiveness ok if people just “cut themselves some slack” and say what they did “was just ok”?

Self-forgiveness is not excusing the self for unjust behavior.  Instead, it is offering mercy in the form of kindness, generosity, and love to the self when one has broken moral standards.  It further includes trying to make amends toward other people who were hurt by those actions.
