You're actually more likely to be found if you sit and stay put. A lot of people tend to think, "Oh, I need to try to figure out where to go to get back to where I was," but that can actually be counterproductive. If you're ever lost, like on a hike, you shouldn't try to move around. You should just sit and figure out a plan, especially if other people knew where you were going. It's way more likely that you'll be found that way.

I am alone in the wilderness and I have no kindling, papers, etc. What should I do?

Assuming the "wilderness" you are in is a forest/wooded area, there is kindling all around you. Just break up twigs and tree branches and use those for kindling.
