Reboot

So, it's been five months since I resigned my post at the Police Department, roughly two months since I found out that I wasn't welcome back. Besides that, its been a little over a year since some other major changes in my life. As such, this blog will turn from a chronicle of my time as a rookie Police Officer, to more of a general observation of my life; in other words, more of a journal.

If the past year has taught me anything, its not to take anything for granted. I lost a lot of things near and dear to me (my dream job, the love of my life) , thanks to lapses in judgment. As much as I would love to go back and reset, I can't. I have always said, the true measure of a man is how he recovers from setbacks.

So, I have started making forward strides. I am still working as a waiter for the time being, and trying to get back into University to complete my degree. More updates to come.
