The following is a quote from my journal dated February 20, 2011:
"…He was so sad in the shelter, they called him 'Lonesome Blue'. He came with us that day and a new life began. We named him 'Blade'…"
This quote reminded me to never give up on the underdog. I have watched this dog who was once so 'lonesome and blue' grow into a beautiful, strong champion.
I think of myself as "the underdog" too. This is not a big company. I am just one guy who is trying to make his dream come true. And while it isn't easy, the name "Blade + Blue" reminds me to never give up on myself and my dream.
This quote is now printed on the inside hem of the Blade + Blue tees. It is my way of passing on the power of believing in yourself on to you.
Thank you so much for reading this….
