Welcome to The LOVEolution 2.0!

June 7th, 2012

This post begins a new direction for The LOVEolution. We like to call it The LOVEolution 2.0.

About a year and a half ago, I moved to the San Francisco Bay area, and I took some time off from The LOVEolution. During that time, our contributing partners were posting lots of great content, and Aaron and I were thinking of ways how we could better serve you, the LOVEolutionaries.

We both felt that The LOVEolution needed more focus. We felt that we needed to redefine what The LOVEolution is and what we’re all about. Here’s what we came up with:

We borrowed the phrase “Be Love” from our friends Jon Marro and Jason Mraz, who actually have “Be Love” tattoos!

We also realized that love can be a very hard thing to define. We believe that love is a state of being, and it all starts with your ATTITUDE.

We thought long and hard about the attitudes that are required to be a LOVEolutionary, and we wrote a manifesto called 11 LOVEolutionary Attitudes.

Our next step is to explore each of these 11 attitudes in great detail, studying some of the best teachers of our time and practicing the attitudes ourselves on a daily basis.

Over the next several weeks, I will be exploring generosity, in a series called Adventures in Generosity. I will be practicing all kinds of acts of generosity, and then reporting back on what I did and what lessons I learned.

At the same time, Aaron will be starting a series called Love 101, in the hopes of defining what love is, and some specific steps you can take to live the life of a LOVEolutionary.

We would like to ask you to join us in the fun! The LOVEolution has always been about collaboration. If you’d be interested in creating your own adventure by learning about one of these 11 attitudes, practicing the attitude yourself and writing a series about it, please let us know!

Lots of love,
Justin & Aaron
