The profession of a first responder, whether a police officer, fire fighter, or ambulance attendant, is usually a thankless one. We dont do it for the recognition or the money, both of which are very minimal anyway. The reason is usually more complicated than we admit.

Sometimes, what lures us in turns out to be an insignificant reason for why we stay. Helping peopleyoull hear that a lot. It turns out there are very few people we can actually help. Saving livesyoull hear that too, but statistically, the odds are not in favor.

No, if we manage to stay with it long enough, those reasons arent enough to keep us going. Theres a subtle transition most of us dont notice, but ultimately, the job becomes about our partner and the people we work with; most of us see them as a second family. Its also about holding on to a single feeling: hope.
