A navigator's view

There are few things in life quite as heartrending as seeing someone you care about laughing, and knowing that the laughs are replacements for tears.

Especially so if you're sitting in the navigator seat, and all you could do is watch. Because it's not in your rights to wrench the steering wheel away from the driver and drive towards the beautiful sunset.

That decision has to be in the hands of the driver.

So all you could do is offer companionship, and perhaps an advice or two, and let the driver run the course, praying under your breath that the car won't crash and be irreparably damaged.

Finger-crossed.
