Contagious Love Experiment

Many thanks to Josh Stieber and Conor Curran for bringing their Contagious Love Experiment to the Metta Center Sunday night! For more info on the guys and their experiment (their Love is Contatagious) you can follow them on their blog. Also, at the request of the other veterans that were our guests for the evening, please check out Veterans for Peace, which has been a community, a solace, and an inspiration to them.

Hear the full audio of Josh and Conor’s Sunday presentation here:

In striving for perfection, we could wait to put up this post until we’ve got just the right text or just the right photos, etc. But the truth is, the best thing we can do is get this up right away, so that we can share it with the world. The story will tell itself (just check out the audio).

Suffice to say that Josh and Conor had our group speechless several times Sunday evening, when they recounted their stories about being recruited, trained, and later, disillusioned by the US military system. These guys are an example of pure integrity and nonviolence in action! Please listen if you like, and share their story as it moves you.

Thank you, Josh and Conor. It was an honor to meet you, and we wish each of you peace and solidarity as you continue on your life’s journey. Peace!

P.S. For another look at Josh and Conor, and a strong dose of positivity…
