This essay is a beautifully crafted articulation of the art of walking. The writers shine a light and then position a looking glass on the simple act of walking. They are gently exhorting us to reject technology for walking purposes and revisit what it means to be human. We are at a unique time in evolution where we are being challenged by technocrats to change the old ways and let these new tools become our master. Our challenge in the Order of Walkers is to maintain the course of the old ways and so nurture a simple, small footprint, satisfying life.
Of course the irony of walking is not lost on me. You go out walking to think. You think of great ideas around technology, which distorts the purpose and purposelessness of walking in the future.
I commend this essay to the Order and may you dwell on its sentiments when you next take the path.
