Is there really such a thing as an educated guess?

          Given a thought, a guess is bound to either hit or miss the real point. Curiosity can lead to a thing or another. Awareness can keeps us in contact with what is in or around us. While understanding connects us to a deeper insight of what is right on our nose.   

          In line with these, reality will tell us of the importance of education in our lives. Especially nowadays that there is a wild frenzy on fake news, the distinction on what to believe in or not is at times going to the hilt of unbelieving.

          Being educated is not only about the time, effort, and resources we spend in our study. Rather, it is about the literacy in comprehension that defines the great difference between studies and the educational pursuit.

          Finishing a course is a goal but the real purpose in having it completed is the application of learning we get from school. The accumulation of knowledge is futile when not put in meaningful productive application. In the first place, education is all about investment and the good benefits that can be derive from it.

          It helps us to relate better to humanity, to express oneself, to establish the norm of professionalism in all circumstance and to contribute because we know that we are more than ready to do so.

          Education not shared is not education at all. It defeats the very purpose of it because its essence and substance is in setting a good standard for men.

          Even given the benefit of a doubt without any inkling, progressive thoughts based on data and facts can never be swayed to be convincing. Take the wisdom in earning a formal education, the vehicle of truth amidst the various spheres of uncertainties in the fast changing of the present and future age to come.

          Is there really an educated guess? Your answer is as good as mine.
