She said,
她说，

voice 3: "It took me years to work through the process of forgiving him. But I found that not forgiving him was hurting me - not him. I felt terrible every time I saw him or someone spoke about him. It was torturing me emotionally. And finally, I just had to let it go. I said, 'Lord, in faith, I forgive him. It is not my problem. It is his. I refuse to hold onto this anymore.' And then I was surprised. The next time I saw him I did not feel anything. He was surprised too - that I spoke to him!"
声音3：“几年之后我才完全原谅他。但是我发现不原谅他会令我痛苦，而他不受影响。每次我看到他或听到其他人谈及他时都感觉很难受。这是在情感折磨我。最后，我必须让这件事过去。我说，‘上帝啊，我真的原谅他了。这不是我的问题。而是他的问题。我不能再抓着这件事不放了。’然后令我感到不可思议的事情发生了。下次我看到他时，我没有任何感觉。他同样感到震惊，因为我和他说话了！”

voice 2: Madeline's next big event was the Olympic Games of 1972. She trained hard. It was not easy. She had personal problems at that time. This included a divorce from her husband. Madeline was not strong mentally or emotionally. But she worked hard to get in good physical condition. One event she would compete in was the relay.
