wisdom

The only way you can get or gain wisdom is if you are a wise person. To be wise you have to live your life and experience everything naturally. If you encounter a mistake you have made, you can't brush it off you have to face it and try and change it the best way you can. You cannot learn about wisdom and say that you have it, that is morally wrong. The only way you can gain wisdom is to go through life and experience it. I believe that this is the clear definition of wisdom, and it makes the most sense.
     Getting straight A's on your report card is a very successful accomplishment. It takes some time and dedication to become smart and to keep your grades up. But personally, I don't think you have wisdom by getting straight A's. You could be a person who is very smart and get grades like this, but makes many mistakes in their life. Just because you are smart, doesn't clearly mean that you are wise. Like I said earlier, to be wise and have wisdom you have to go through life and experience many different types of things and fix all of your mistakes, not just brush them off. Yes graduating with a Ph.D is a successful thing, but it doesn't define being wise. The same goes for rising quickly to the top of a great corporation. The one that I do agree with on the other hand is having a photographic memory. That is one great thing to have because you can tell people about all of your memories and teach them lessons about life. I think that doing that you become wise and you gain wisdom.
     You cannot take a test for wisdom. The only way to gain wisdom is to go through life and fix your problems. I must have said this over four times already in this blog, but that is the realest answer. Being wise and having wisdom is a really great quality in my eyes. You could be best friends with someone your whole life and you can think that they are wise. But sometimes, they truly aren't wise and do not have wisdom because of the way they have handled things in their life. I think that everyone should think about wisdom when they are handling problems in their life because if wisdom is on their mind, it will make them do the right thing and make the situation a whole lot better.
Wisdom is a feature of someone that always gives them a one up on a say "un-wise" person in a time of hardship. Wisdom is something that lets someone find a way to succeed when there is no visible path to success. but i think most of all wisdom is something that lets a person be a leader, and be someone that anyone can come to to be better
