Coming of Age: Young Man

The Write of Passage Journal: Crafted from Wisdom. Inspired by Love.

Every life transition deserves a keepsake - a collection of memories, wisdom, and tales that remind us of who we, where we've come from, and where we are going. 

Introducing the Write of Passage Journal, a unique and heartwarming way to capture the collective wisdom of your loved ones, to inform and inspire your son, family member, or friend as he transitions from a boy to a young man.

How it Works

1. Choose your Circle: As the giver, you'll identify the close-knit group of friends and family who've played a pivotal role in your young man's life.
2. Share and Circulate: With the journal in hand, each member pens their message - be it a tale from days past, advice for the road ahead, or just words of love and encouragement.
3. A Tapestry of Wisdom: The journal travels from one member to the next (sometimes by mail, sometimes by hand), weaving a tapestry of wisdom, love, and shared memories.
4. The Final Gift: Once filled, the journal finds its way back to you, now ready to be presented as a sacred gift to your young man - not just from you, but from everyone who has played a special role in shaping his life. 

Each Journal is Divided into Three Parts:

1. Twenty-five Contributor Sections - to allow up to 25 people to lend their wisdom
2. Eight Writing Prompts - to allow the young man who receives the journal to reflect on what he's read
3. One-hundred Open Pages - to record his own thoughts as he continues on through his journey

Our Origin Story

When my own son was turning 16-years-old, I wanted to find a gift to mark his transition from a boy to a young man. I was suddenly struck by a simple yet profound idea: create a journal to be filled with the voices of the men who have mattered most in his life; grandfathers, uncles, coaches, and life-long family friends. Let those entries become a timeless guide, something he can refer back to through life's key moments. This first Write of Passage Journal served as a modern day rite of passage, surpassing the challenges of geography to create a book of wisdom bound by the ties of love.

• Personalized: Each journal becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake, tailored to the recipient.
• Timeless: While digital media can be deleted and lost, the wisdom inked in these pages can be referred to for a lifetime.
• Versatile: Perfect for milestones like graduations, birthdays, religious ceremonies, or any pivotal life moment.
• Connected: Regardless of distance, this journal bridges the gaps to bring the wisdom of loved ones closer.

A Meaningful Gift to Last a Lifetime

• Sweet 16 & Milestone Birthdays: Mark the transition from a boy to a young man.
• Religious Celebrations: Bar Mitzvahs, Confirmations, and other rites of passage.
• Graduations: Commemorate the leap from one chapter to the next.
• Christmas & Special Holidays: A season of love and reminiscence.

In life’s journey, we often seek guidance, strength, and wisdom of our elders. The Write of Passage Journal is not just a book, but a keepsake of collective voices guiding your young man forward. Because sometimes, the best compass is the love and wisdom passed down from family and friends.
