A security officer was dead and lying in a
pool of blood, when a boy and his father
watched the scene. The boy asks his father: “Who
is this man who is killed?” “I do not know, son,
I just know, that he was a security officer.”
The young boy approached a person who was
dressed in a beautiful uniform different from
the others, very elegant. It was the commander
of the unit where the security officer worked.
The boy took his hand and asked: “Could I know
what a security officer is?”
The officer responded in a trembling voice and
his eyes were full of tears: “A security officer is
a person who sleeps less than many people,
passes cold, sun, rain, hunger. And there are
times that he/she has no holiday days,
Christmas, New Year and many other important
moments. He/she is far away from the family,
their children when they are sick, or their
husband/wife as well as their parents and
siblings. A security officer receives insults,
physical assaults, they cry, suffer, spend
thousands of scares and many more things that
happen to them in their line of duty. But when
he leaves for his job, very early, he does not
know if he will return home alive. This is part of
what a security officer is.”
Suddenly he heard the sound of a phone that
rang in the pocket of the deceased. The officer
left the child for a moment to take the cell
phone. When he saw it, he realized that it was
his home.
He saw that it was a message, and in a very low
voice he read:
Hello Daddy, I took my mother's cell phone to
write this message:
“I want to congratulate you for your birthday. I
look forward to give you your present because it
has been two days that you cannot be at home.
So today we will cut the cake. Today we will be
together as a family. I love you dad, you're my
super dad. A kiss ###xx .... I'll wait for you at
home.”
Such is the life of a "security officer." Whatever
their unit, whether operational or
administrative. If you can, spread this message
so that people, instead of criticizing, value the
effort of a security officer, If you have a
family member or friend who is a security
officer, thank him/her. May God bless all the
security officers in the world."
Happy security officers day.proudly security
