I Love U

The Holiday Matinee Artist Series brings us this little ditty by Ashkahn. It says “I Love U,” which is great…but there’s also a bit of a juxtaposition with the cracks, cobwebs and what I can only assume to be bird crap. Irony? Hardly. The implication is that love needs to be tended to. Saying you love someone and then following through on that love is a journey many are too lazy to make. A good deal of people don’t go much further than saying it. If we were to treat words and thoughts as tangible things (which I believe we should) then these words would often look just as they do on this tee…a grand gesture, left unattended…only to fall into decay. Such is life, I suppose. I’m not sure if I picked this T-shirt to write about today because I was feeling philosophical or vice versa. In any case Holiday Matinee donates 100% of the proceeds from every tee purchased to plant, maintain and protect trees. And did I mention that all shirts are tag-free and 100% organic? It’s hard not to love the I Love U T-shirt with that in mind.
