Being able to examine our thoughts and translate them into digital graphics that get printed on clothing is, in our eyes, a magical superpower. This power can be used for good or bad, and how we choose to arrange pixels can have a significant impact on the world around us and the people participating in it. It doesn't take much to see that there's a massive attack on our minds. We can hold a black rectangle in our hand and see every terrible thing that's happening around the world at once, and there's nothing we can do about most of it. It's easy to see and experience all the hateful and painful words of others, and it's never been easier to lie, cheat, steal and deceive. Nothing seems real anymore. With this infinite knowledge and vision in our hands, it's become too easy for us to slide into a hopeless state of comparison, being lost, directionless, powerless, and depressed. We are not meant to take on the pain of the world ourselves, and we don't have to. But if something as small as an image or a few words can contribute to someone's despair, then the opposite must also be true. Imagine you're having one of your darkest days, walking down the street thinking that no one cares and the world is falling apart, when you see someone walking in front of you wearing a shirt with big bold text on it, almost impossible to miss. The text reads: YOU ARE DEEPLY LOVED. Maybe you needed to see that. Maybe it causes you to stop for a second and reconsider something. Maybe that thought becomes another thought, which becomes a conversation, which becomes a decision, and that decision changes the trajectory of your life. We tend to underestimate the significance of small moments because we have no way of knowing what they eventually become. A few words encountered randomly on a Tuesday afternoon could mean absolutely nothing to one person and become a catalyst for enormous change in another. And that's the point. We don't know who needs to see it, when they need to see it, or what might happen because they did. We just know there is power in putting something good into the world. YADL stands for “You Are Deeply Loved.” This original shirt was designed to deliver that message as far as we can. 30% of all sales are donated directly to To Write Love on Her Arms, supporting their work to bring hope and help to people who are struggling.
