Some of you may know by now that I am at the start of a new life. That is to say, a new working life. On Thursday 28th April my previous career came to an end, Not through choice exactly but through necessity. Medical necessity. Again, some of you who know me well will know what my former occupation was. I was a Police Officer. Specifically, a Detective in what is termed Public Protection. The department of Public Protection has several departments, some of which I worked in at one time or another. Two of the departments are Child Abuse Investigation and High Risk Domestic Abuse Investigation. I spent the latter part of my career in the Domestic Abuse Investigation Unit. I'm not going to dwell on what work I did, but suffice to say, it is a draining, consuming occupation which, although it's a cliché, becomes a state of mind. It was a job I'd had for the last thirteen years and I'd assumed it would continue for quite some time yet. But it wasn't to be and although I gnashed my teeth, swore a lot, and cried about the injustice of it all, I'm moving on. Who knows what the future holds? This wasn't something I'd planned for, although it was on the cards for last three years, but that's exciting, isn't it? I feel fortunate to have had a career of which I'm immensely proud of but now it's time for something new! Onwards and upwards, as they say!

All peoples in this worlds have such a kind of lives and we must win from these types of things. Never think hard about the PAST, It brings tears. Don’t think more about the FUTURE, It brings fears. Live this moment with a smile, it brings cheers. Every test in our life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to make us or break us, The choice is ours whether we become victims or victorious. And I wish all the success for your future life. Live happily and thank you so much for sharing this.
