guides
Leads the way
Guides are people or things that lead or direct.
A tour guide shows visitors around; a trail guide leads hikers through wilderness.
Extended to objects: a user guide explains how something works, a style guide sets standards.
To guide is to lead, direct, or influence: She guided him through the process.
Let your conscience be your guide.
