Me and the Dood: In the Moment

In the moment is where it all happens. The past was and the future has yet to present itself. So when I sat on this bench with the Dood, I chose it for the message, “Your past does not define you”. It got me to think, and I invite you to do the same.

Hanging in the Hood with the Dood

The past often feels real, especially when we think back on events that felt powerful (in a good or negative way) when they happened. Sometimes, we are able to use these moments as stories that inspire us. But they could also bring back pain.

I think the message here is to be in the moment and act fresh, not tied to what happened or did not happen. However, I also think if you let your past define you, that might be ok too. It depends on how that is working out in your mind/body/spirit ecosystem.

Philly is a very artful city. Regardless of where you weigh in on the issue, this particular parklette has several colorful benches, poles for bicycles and that bright blue mural which I recommend you see up close.

Many a day, the dood and other dog friends use the park to do their thing. But don’t let that discourage you. We often go there with a coffee from La Colombe HQ and may have something buttery from Cake Life which is further down Frankford Ave.
