When Cops Retire
When a good cop leaves the "job" and retires to a better life, many are
jealous, some are pleased and yet others, who may have already retired,wonder. We wonder if
he knows what they are leaving behind, because we already know. We know, for example, that
after a lifetime of camaraderie that few experience, it will remain as a longing for those past times.
We know in the law enforcement life there is a fellowship which lasts long after the uniforms are
hung up in the back of the closet. We know even if he throws them away, they will be on him with every
step and breath that remains in his life. We also know how the very bearing of the man speaks of what
he was and in his heart still is. These are the burdens of the job. You will still look at people
suspiciously, still see what others do not see or choose to ignore and always will look at the rest
of the law enforcement world with a respect for what they do; only grown in a lifetime of knowing.
Never think for one moment you are escaping from that life. You are only escaping the "job" and
merely being allowed to leave "active" duty. So what I wish for you is that whenever you ease into
retirement, in your heart you never forget for one moment that "Blessed are the Peacemakers for
they shall be called children of God",and you are still a member of the greatest fraternity
the world has ever known.
