In this blog, Randy Morris offers his thoughts on the question of “Who am I?”, archetypal patterns of human development, and how they relate to our thinking and practices at Rite of Passage Journeys. He writes, “I offer the following reflections as a step in the direction of clarifying the basic principles and assumptions that guide our work. I often refer to these assumptions as the Center Pole of Journeys. The image of the Center Pole marks where we stand most authentically as a non-profit organization and as an earth-centric community. A well built Center Pole tells us what we are, and what we are not. To articulate a Center Pole is to encourage and foster a community of learning.”
