Wisdom and Knowledge

I believe that wisdom is something you gain with experience and knowledge is what you learn to gain the wisdom. The definition of knowledge from the book is, information which we believe to be true and for which we have justification or evidence.  Wisdom is defined as the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment by the dictionary. In order to have wisdom you first must have knowledge. I do not think that anybody can be wise without first learning something, whether it is scholarly or social. College is a place where you gain knowledge that you will use to live in the world. Wisdom comes from experiences which increase with age. I believe that the knowledge we gain as we grow up help us become wiser. This is because we not only have the information to solve a problem but the chance that we have experienced something similar before and know how the outcomes affect our lives.
