I applaud the courage portrayed by victims of rapes and/or molests. It takes great strength to summon the bravery to report and share their story. It is not an easy task, after being subjected to such unworldly and unimaginable act of abuse, both physically and mentally.
Reports on crimes of this nature are getting more often, lately. Although I've only started to notice for about a week or so, which a relatively short period of time, in between the feelings sickening disgust for the crimes committed, I feel glad for the victims.
The gladness does not translate to glad-happy, but more so towards, glad-appreciate. I really appreciate that victims did not stay silent, and chose instead to share and let known the sufferings that they went through. I imagine the myriad of emotions going through their minds, the pain, anger, embarrassment, confusion, hatred, reliving the those horrid moments, so that the perpetrator can be hunted down and the unassuming world outside beknowned of the existence of another such abhorrent act.
It is not easy to relate the moments when you were the most vulnerable, being preyed on, violated against your will, admitting that you were incapable of defend yourself. To be able to do just that, summoning your spirit and courage, when you are most vulnerable, is the greatest of all strength. You have taken your first step to exorcising the demon out.
