A phrase used in many mystery traditions, including modern freemasonry, one way Masons may identify each other is as follows:
“Are you a traveling man?”
“Yes”
“Where do you travel?”
“I travel from West to East and then from East back to West, in search of that which is lost”
The true meaning of “that which is lost” refers to the missing phallus of Osiris in the Egyptian mythos. According to legend, Osiris is murdered and dismembered into 14 pieces, his wife, the widow Isis recovers all 14 save for his phallus, which was thrown into the Nile and consumed by 3 fish. The three fish represent: Ignorance (The Mob/People), Superstition (The Church) and Fear (The State)
That ancient Obelisk represents this missing phallus.
“Are you a traveling man?”
“Yes”
“Where do you travel?”
“I travel from West to East and then from East back to West, in search of that which is lost”

Get the lost faith in humanitymug. Lost is what you become when the reason you were everything is gone. The moment you lose that everything, there is nothing... You can pretend all you want that you are okay but everyone else including yourself, know it ain't like that at all. There are a lot of lost everywhere, everyones is just different form everyone else. Being lost is the worst because you wish you had it again but thats impossible at least in some cases. There is nothing left for you...
Ex: "She a lost girl after losing her everything"
Ex: "He is lost after losing his everything"
Ex: "They are BOTH lost after losing eachother."
Ex: "He is lost after losing his everything"
Ex: "They are BOTH lost after losing eachother."

Get the Lost and confusedmug. This game is something that started at a Jazz Band of a School.
The rule of the game is where if you know it, the game started.
Every time you get reminded by somebody about the game, you have to say that you lost the game.
Even though you just suddenly think about it, that includes it as a reminder.
You might want to spread this game to many people and start the trend.
And now that you also know this, THE GAME HAS BEGUN.

Get the I lost the game!mug. A “lost boy” can describe someone, usually young, who feels lost in life—emotionally or mentally disconnected from the world around them. It could be someone who struggles with identity, purpose, or direction, or someone who feels out of place or abandoned.
