A Police Story

A Police Story

PI Valenzuela (CL 2005)

A plane crashed, and there were three survivors. All were professionals; a lawyer, an engineer, and of course the main actor, a Police Officer.

Unfortunately, they were held captives in the middle of the jungle by a group of ferocious crocodiles. one morning, the baby crocodile got hungry, so he asked his mother for something to eat for breakfast. The mother said, "Go ahead, eat the lawyer. Anyway, lawyer are liars."

Time passed so fast that lunchtime came. And again, the baby crocodile asked his mother for food. The mother retorted, "Go ahead, engineer for engineer are not environment-friendly. They destroy our homes."

After a few hours, the bay crocodile asked his mother, "Mother, can I now eat the policeman? I think he is very delicious."

"What?" the mother replie d. "Stupid! Don't you recognize him? He is also a crocodile and even much bigger than us, do something to feed him before he eat us."

Although this may appear as a joke for some and an insult for others, this serve as a challenge for us, we, the future crocodiles?

We have a choice. Most especially, we have all the chances to make a diferrence or join the rest of the crocodiles. Our chosen profession is indeed a unique one. Why? Yes, teachers teach lessons in the school, while a policeman teaches lessons in life. But unlike the latter, a teacher would not allow himself to get killed if his student failed to learn. Doctors heal wounded bodies yet a policeman heal social diseases. Engineers build bridges that may connect vast lands, but policeman defend people's live and properties. And no lawyer would agree to die with his client in a lethal injection chamber.

These simple illustrations plainly manifest the nobility of our chosen profession, because we are prepared to die for our customers and clients, the public.

Let me remind you that the foundation embedded in our hearts by our homes, schools, and community will hopefully serve as our main weapon and shield as we embark on our profession.

"We are the Last"

"We are the Last"
by Cadet 4C Gotladera

It will take a lot of oceans to cross

Before I can read into your soul

I feel hundred years had past

Since we last held our hands

All alone, misery fills me

Tears want to flow, can't you see?

My heart is a slave of your memories

I kwow there's nothing that can to fight this fear

I beg you even for once take a glance

Look at us it seems we're the last

The love that we have

May it be until the end

Problems may still come along

Hear says will grow old

They may see it's impossible

But let us prove they are wrong

Let the stars during the night

Be our light and guide

To keep us alive

And promise to ourselves we

Will never be apart.
