Relationships Series - Old Flames

Good morning to you!

This one will be quick.

It has happened to us all on Facebook, but it happened to me yesterday.

I received "that" friend request. Yes, I'm talkin' 'bout that one from the crush I had when I was in the 11th grade.
We were crazy about each other...........back in the day, of course. We never, however, entered into any type of relationship though, just phone contact. Naturally, that made the mental escapades even more vivid. Why, you ask? Well, it's quite simple. The less involved a person is, with a previous infatuation, the greater capacity one has to create a "perfect fantasy" in one's mind; because you don't have any 'horrrible endings' to draw from, only candy-coated imaginations. At any rate, we managed to keep in touch all the way up until 1994; two years, before my wife and I were wed. You know how the Facebook scenario goes. You see the little "people" icon highlighted, showing that you have a friend request. You click on it, and suddenly......"that" name appears. I was floored. At that moment, the Ghost of Crushes Past crept up, and began to take me on a psychological and emotional roller coaster. Every conversatinon, her perfume, every song, from the past replayed, simultaneously, in my handsome, egg-shaped cranium. I buckled for a moment and regrouped.

Isn't it amazing how the voices from your body and mind never take into account, the gravity of your current circumstance and commitments? You just fly away.......at least I did. for about 8 munutes.

But, fortunately, thanks to God and the great spiritual mentors that I have, I was able to pull, from my self help medicine bag, a secret weapon that hasn't failed me yet. 'Wanna know what it is? Relax alright!!! I'm gonna tell you........

It is a question...........and it is as follows:

"If I pursue what my body and mind are telling me to pursue, what will be the consequences?"

At this point, I am able to usher in images of my reality. My wife, eight children and all the memories we've created over the past 18 years begins to crystallize.............and Wick Dad0y is back home safely from his short trip to Pleasure Island.

It is my sincere hope that you were able to grasp something my brief rendezvous with deja vu.

But now that I've gone back and absorbed everything in this blog entry, I have just one question for you.

Is it me, or did this stroll down memory lane seem longer than eight minutes to you too???????????

Good evening Dr.W.D. family,

I am submitting this entry for your review after much angst and inner turmoil. It has become quite obvious that this is an issue that is near and dear to me.

Hence, I shall now begin.

Good evening party people!

P2 - Wick Politics - Obama, Bin Laden and Bush.

I would like to start off by thanking each of you for wishing me a happy birthday today! I am humbled by the great relationships that are a part of my life; my wife in particular. I can state, unequivocally, that she was created for me, by God.

This blog entry is probably one that I may regret the timing of, in the future.

Greetings Party People!

Yes, it is that time again. First, I want you to know that I count it a privilege to share this time with you. I do not take your time, nor your comments for granted. I am finding myself, becoming more of a student, than a teacher, as I am sharing here with you on "The Dr. Wick Daddy Show!" It is truly an honor.

I was inspired to write this piece by a dear friend of mine, who was kind enough to share an experience that she had at a recent company outing. She observed a strange phenomenon that I beleve we are all, quite too familiar with.

Lock and Key

Good morning friend.

I am writing to you at this hour, after much inner turmoil, regarding the nature of this topic. It has been some time, since our last post, here at TDWDS! Furthermore, I don't want this to turn into a five paragraph intro, so let's just dive in, shall we?

Happy April Fools to you!

I have chosen this day to share this relationship nugget for a very specific reason, that I will delve into, momentarily.
