Route recalcuting

Last weekend I used the navigation system in my new car for the first time going to a friend's wedding. When I say for the first time, I mean, the first time I really didn't know how to get to my destination. It was an awesome experience as I watched the whole thing play out. Did I trust the gps? Did I feel the need to find it on my own, in my own way? (yes that would be with a map). It was a lesson in trusting. As I turned against the advice of the gps, she would say "route recalculation." Her job, just like the job of our teachers, is to get us to the goal line, no matter how many times we turn off the prescribed course. There is always another way to get "there." and I did get there. And on time.
