We have all been told that the eyes are the windows to the
soul. For a person like Rick Wilcox though, the eyes are windows to so much
more. The picture above is a great example of what Rick seeks in everyone that
he engages. Those windows bring the amazement and wonders of childhood forward.
Viewing the art of illusion triggers a thought process in us
that most things in life just don’t invoke. When you read a good book or watch
a movie, you have an idea of how it is supposed to end and what steps the story
has to take to get you there. When you view an illusion the path and the end
are the surprise. Our reaction to being completely surprised with viewing this
event immediately leaves all of us with the familiar, “How did they do that?”
response.
That emotion, that sense of wonder, that moment in time is
filled with the same energy that drives us to seek our paths of happiness,
knowledge, love and life. That energy is euphoric and filled with the vigor of youth.
Through magic and laughter Rick seeks the child that can be found within all of
us and in the grand scheme of purpose in life, one would be hard pressed to
find a more rewarding mantra to live by.
In the coming weeks we will walk side by side with Rick and
Susan Wilcox sharing these stories and anecdotes with you our friends. We thank you all for your support over
the years and sharing our stories in the days to come.
