The promise~

I think i was meant to be a soldier. I am always ready to fight and get into trouble. I love adventure and i can endure hell itself. Back in High school, when the twin towers just had fallen and everyone was in paranoia stage about the war, I made a promise to someone. I was top of my class in ROTC and Special Forces RECON which train you for a career in the military. For 4 years I worked hard and it was showing, the colonel had promoted me to Captain and I had my own battalion as well. Also in Special forces Recon (which was a program not affiliated with my school, the directors saw my potential and promoted me as well. On top of that, everyone was pushing me to go to WEST POINT, which is the top elite military school in the world (where all our presidents and top soldiers graduated). But one person feared that something might happened to me especially because I show too much initiative and always want to go first and do the most dangerous assignments. So on Valentine day my X-girlfriend (X-fiancee) made me promise not to join any military branch, with tears flowing from her eyes, I couldn't resist. I know she didn’t want my life endangered and she was a very emotional girl, I really couldn't resist seeing her cry like that. I had promised not to join any of the military forces, and to those of you that know me, know that I keep my promises no matter what. But I always stop to wonder what life would by like if I had gone to West Point and gone to the army. So now still keeping my promise do you think joining the police force and essentially SWAT would endanger the promise I made to her 7 years ago?
