The estimate that became groundbreaking

The old map led nowhere. The surveyor shrugged and wrote, “Just an estimate.” Years later, workers digging foundations uncovered a forgotten town exactly where he’d marked. They called it genius. He called it luck and never corrected anyone afterward. This estimate was groundbreaking. It became a source of inspiration for the new generation. However, the surveyor never really acted upon it. People thought he was being modest. But the truth was, he did make just an estimate which somehow landed true. It was a surprise for himself too.

Picture is my own.
