Inspired by a group of anonymous individuals who identified heavily with well known authors such as Thoreau, Whitman, Emerson, Woolf and many other philosophical types.
Thier writings embodies and leads to enlightenment for some members in this underground secretive society.
I first became aware of Society while browsing the non-fiction section of the local library when I noticed a little book called “The Wander Society” by Kerri Smith.
I was already a member and didn’t realize it, frequently wandering into nature and being observant of the landscape within my field of vision. All who wander are not lost...
Collecting little treasures as I wandered into the unknown. Totally lost in my natural world, my mind at rest and focused on the only task at hand-my wanderings.
It isn’t exclusively just nature, wandering can be undertaken anywhere-any city, any town, any street, virtually anywhere. The only requirement is being mindful and absorbed in the task of wandering.
Many members leave secret symbols and pamphlets in areas explored explaining requirements for becoming I member. A sort of “Manifesto” if you will.
Members often leave testimony of “I was Here” in the form of a symbol.
