Here is my heart. Crush it.

Today.

I assisted the family of my client. There was an allegation that a minor was raped by her blood relatives.

The cynic in me would rather believe that the incident is just concocted by the imaginative minds of children.

I assisted with caution. Wary of the veracity of the accusation and worried of the danger that we are getting into.

We were able to get the child/victim.

My heart was crushed when I heard the  victim say, "Ka salamat kay gikuha gyud ko nimo."  Translation: "Elder sibling, I am grateful that you took me from this place."

So tonight, I am going to sleep less jaded and with a crushed but softened heart.
