For all that I have done, I am so sorry.
為此我深感歉意。
I have a lot to atone for, but there is one issue I really want to discuss. Some people have speculated that Elin somehow hurt or attacked me on Thanksgiving night. It angers me that people would fabricate a story like that. Elin never hit me that night or any other night. There has never been an episode of domestic violence in our marriage, ever. Elin has shown enormous grace and poise throughout this ordeal. Elin deserves praise, not blame.
我有很多的罪過需要彌補,不過其中有一件事我必須跟大家交待清楚。有些人猜測伊琳在感恩節那天曾經動手打過我。為此我感到很是氣憤,居然會有人如此不負責任地造謠。伊琳從來沒有對我動過手,在我們倆之間從來沒有任何的家庭暴力事件。在整個事情當中,伊琳一直保持著很優雅和寬容的姿態。伊琳的行為值得大家稱贊而不是責備。
The issue involved here was my repeated irresponsible behavior. I was unfaithful. I had affaris. I cheated. What I did is not acceptable, and I am the only person to blame.
今天的問題是我不斷地干不負責任的事。我不忠誠,我有外遇,我撒謊。我的這些行為都是不可接受的,我是唯一要受到責備的人。
I stopped living by the core values that I was taught to believe in. I knew my actions were wrong, but I convinced myself that normal rules didn't apply. I never thought about who I was hurting. Instead, I thought only about myself. I ran straight through the boundaries that a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I thought that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled. Thanks to money and fame, I didn't have to go far to find them.
我拋棄了從小被教導相信的核心價值觀念。我知道我之前的行為是不對的。但我卻蒙騙了自己,以為那些道德框架對我是無效的。我從來沒有想過那些被我傷害過的人。我只是以自我為中心,我直接越過那些為夫妻所設定的道德界限。我以為自己不受那些規則所限制,我可以為所欲為。我以為我自己一生都有努力奮斗,所以我就理所當然地能去享受身邊的這些誘惑。我覺得有權這么做。也因為我的金錢與名譽,我很容易地就得到這些。
