knowledge and wisdom are very similar and yet very different, if you get what i mean. knowledge you get from going to school and learning it in a class room but wisdom you get by going through different obsticles in your life, some people say you get wisdom by old age but i dont i think so, you get it by going through different things and learning from your mistakes. you gain knowledge by somebody teaching it to you and you gain wisdom by learning it your self.
i really think wisdom is cool but knowledge is better in everyday life for most people because you need knowledge in sertain things to get a good job that pays a good amount of money.wisdom you can get a job based on wisdom but if you cant read or wright then its no use, so i think knowledge is better to have but i really adore wisdom and the people who have wisdom.and i dont have anything against it.
THE DIFFERENT BETWEEN KNOWLEGE AND WISDOM THAT KNOWLEDE IS SORT TALKING EDUCATION WISE AND WISDOM IS LIKE A DEEPER PERSEPCTIVE THAT SOMEONE CAN HAVE ON CRETAIN SITUTION I THINK YOU GAIN KNOWLEGE BY LEARNING AND LISTENING TO THING I THINK YOU GAIN WISDOM BY NOT MAKEING THE SAME MISTAKE OVER AND OVER. I THINK THAT KNOWLEDGE IS MORE IMPORTANT BECAUSE KNOWLEDGE EVENTUALLY DEVELOPE LATER IN LIFE SO WE WOULD REALLY NEED KNOWLEDGE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<:
the difference between knowledge and wisdom is: wisdom is more of an experience of what you learned through out your life. its more like you live through what you have learned, while knowledge is more described as it being teached and most likely all the knowledge you have obtained you probably not going to or did not experience.
you can gain knowledge by going through school or college. wisdom you can gain through life experiences. having knowledge is more important just because every where you go like college or job interviews are gonna know how much you know and how smart you know but personally i think that you need both you can't have one with out the other.
There are quite afew differences between the two...
Knowledge & wisdom are both gained through life, yes, but wisdom is something we learn on our own. While knowledge can be taught by others, such as mentors, teachers, etc...Wisdom is something we gain by observation & experience. Live & learn, if you will. Knowledge, like we learn in school, is valuable to an extent, but not all we learn in that department will serve us later in life. It is effective, but not always useful. Wisdom, common sense, morality,etc. are absolutely invaluable. The experience of living & what we pick up along the way, may be a deciding factor in latter, key points of our lives. While we can always use knowledge, ultimatly, it seems many of the more important decisions in life seem to come down to morals & our sense of wisdom.
knowledge and wisdom whats the difference? well in my opinion knowledge is the sort of thing you get from books or a lesson in class...its what school is supposed to offer you. however when i think of wisdom i think of a lesson that is learned through expieriance. wisdom is erned through a struggle a person goes through. like the older you are the more wisdom your likely to have because you have been through more expieriances. the concepts are simple if you can learn it from a book its most likely knowledge. but if its a lesson you learned from an expieriance it is deffinately wisdom. i believe that wisdom is more important in daily life because its a lesson that is learned from expieriance. i know its more important because you can get knowledge from a book at any time and you can memorize it. but eventually that knowledge faids. wisdom on the other hand is a first hand expieriance that is less likely to faid.
Knowledge is not wisdom. I would define knowledge as things you learn without experience, such as facts and lessons in school. Anyone can acquire knowledge about something. People teach you how to read and write and through that, you gain knowledge. Knowledge is something you can learn very quickly. You need knowledge to gain wisdom. Wisdom to me is something that you gain from experience and what you learn from your experience. It is nothing that you can be taught. Wisdom is a collection of things that you learn on your own. Gaining wisdom can take a very long time. You usually make some mistakes and learn from them before you gain wisdom. Once you gain wisdom, you can easier recognize the difference between wisdom and knowledge. You do not have to be old to have wisdom. However, older people have been living longer and have been through more experiences, which usually make them wiser. Just because you are old, does not mean you are wise. In daily life, knowledge and wisdom both play major roles. Knowledge is important to get you through your day intelligently, especially when you are going to school or working. Wisdom is equally important however, so that you do not make mistakes that can have a great impact on your life. Wisdom prevents you from making mistakes over and over.
ehh, this one is kind of heard because to tell you the truth i dont really know. i guess we gain knowledge by reading about things in books and researching. i think that we were born with some knowledge because i dont ever really remember learning the things that we're doing in class this year. is'nt knowledge and wisdom sort of the same thing? i dont have any idea what wisdom is. i believe that knowledge is most important, because it's something you use everyday in your life. i know that knowledge is more important because it's what you need to get good grades, to pass school, to get into a decent college and so fourth.
i agree with sierra, about the similarities with knowledge and wisdom. i have a good feeling that we need knowledge more then anything, but thats just my opinion. =]
What is the difference between knowledge and wisdom? Wisdom in my opinion is something gained over a period of time. For example relationships, no one is ever wise in that department, this takes time and experience. While in a relationship you must over come certain obstacles before there’s smooth sailing. In other words, I would describe wisdom as a personal experience you go through. Knowledge on the other hand, I believe is something you know as factual. For example, everyone knows about 9/11; therefore in 200 years someone can open a book and know what happened. We can learn about history, world events and any subject in the world. They don’t need to have it affect them to know that it is true. On the matter on which knowledge or wisdom is more important in daily life, I would say both. If you think about it you in school you gain knowledge through out the day whether it’s in textbooks, worksheets, or taught by the teachers. Than wisdom helps you by not repeating something that you have already done that might have been wrong.
I believe that the difference between knowledge and wisdom is that knowledge is something that you teach yourself. You go to school for knowledge. It comes from text books and that sort of thing. Wisdom is something and you learn from hardships and all of your mistakes. Wisdom is more common sense that you have gained over a long period of time. I think that wisdom is very important to have, but knowledge will get you much further because you can get a much better job for being smart, not having wisdom.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom is knowledge is facts, truths, or principles from a study or general education. However, wisdom is something you learn from a past with good judgment. It’s mostly stories from the past that have a lesson or meaning, to help another. You gain knowledge threw school, books, facts, education; but you gain wisdom threw life, it’s everything experience you’ve learn good or bad, its common sense most of the time. Both are very important wisdom doesn’t help you get a job knowledge does, but knowledge can’t buy wisdom. To me wisdom is more important just because I learn so much in the past and I seen so many things in the past and knowledge isn’t the answers to everything wisdom is. Its not written in a book or it on facts its on my life and my experiences, its stories I read in the bible and stories from my family. Knowledge can help you threw a job but it wisdom that helps you threw life.

Good question, is there a difference? Knowledge is something that you already know maybe it could be right from wrong or just plan common sense.Wisdom is the concept of knowing its much more than just the basic knowing is more of and in depth knowing that you gain wisdom from the situation. For example if lose everything and have to start over, you gain knowledge but that's is the most obvious. But you see wisdom is how you grow up from the situation. You don't gain wisdom, you gain knowledge but not wisdom. Like I said before wisdom is how you grow from something. You know 2+2=4. But the wisdom would be the questioning like why doesn't it equal 5 instead. Both wisdom and knowledge are very important in your daily life. But, to me wisdom is more important because you can know everything in the entire world but if you never questioned anything or think why this instead of that then what's is the use of knowing everything? To me I would rather want wisdom then knowledge. Knowledge is to know as wisdom is to wonder.
This is a good question knowledge is somthing you know from like maybe a book reading or somthing like that or learning from school that is knowledge. wisdom is really experceing somthing and learning from it like for some kids from the hood we ma have more wisdom when it comes to the streets and what to do and what not to do other then some one that is from a suburbs.we gain knowledge from studing and reading. they both are very important.See knowledge would help you get a job if you apply your self with knowledge,wisdom would help you with every day life. like useing your common sence and knowing right from wrong.you would gain wisdon from living and experences in your life. Wisdom would help you with everyday life,knowledge would help you with school and getting a good job you cant have one with out the other!
hmm i dont really have either of these 2 but i know the difference at least. knowledge isn't about hom much someone knows, its how much someone can know. intelligence is what a person knows. wisdom is something is learned through, not just the mistakes, of others or yourself doing something bad or good. wisdom is something that people seem to think is something a person only that acts mature and and has a big vocabulary has. though thats not true becauseyou dont have to be book smart to be wise. wisdom doesnt come from books, it comes from your and others' mistakes and non-mistakes. Knowledge is just how much someone can learnbut, someone in a third world country could be more knowledgable than einstein but if they cant learn than they will never gain intellegence but they will still be knowledgable. i believe that wisdom is more important than anythig else because with wisdom you can learn almost anything easier and or faster than others.
KnowLedge and wisdom are simlar yet different..Knowledge in my opinion is something that is learned through a teacher,book etc..while Wisdom is something that you gain on your on through age or life experenices.Knowledge is used to find word problems while wisdom is knowing wut is right from wrong because of past experience or seeing what someone has done and how it has turned out.They are both equally important to me in life.becaue you need to learn new things and you also need the common sense or wisdom to know what to do with them.
Knowledge and wisdom are very similar but also different.I would have to say that the difference between knowledge and wisdom has to do with time. The dictionary definition is "familiarity or conversance, as with a particular subject or branch of learning", the defintion of wisdom is " the quality or state of being wise; knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as to action; sagacity, discernment, or insight." I personally think that knowledge has to do with being book smart. You get knowledge from books and facts, things like you learn in classes. Wisdom to me means the knowledge you get from life experiences over time. We gain wisdom from life experiences. Wisdom is basically the lessons that we learn from day to day things. I think that wisdom is more important in my daily life. Everyday I rely on the lessons that I have learned from other experiences in the past. Knowledge leaves your mind really fast, for example, when I go to math class i gain new knowledge, when i leave it is fresh in my mind, but when i get home part of it has already faded away. It completely gets forgotten until I go to math class the next day and my memory gets refreshed. Wisdom is hard to forget because it has a bigger impact on peoples' lives. Yeah, wisdom is definitely way more important im my daily life.
The difference from knowledge and wisdom is this. Knowledge is what they teach you in school what you learn from books and what you learn from other things surrounding you. Wisdom on the other hand is learning from personal experiences that you dealt with in your life. Anybody can have wisdom even from being a baby if you think about it. I gain much wisdom in my life, every day probably I just sometimes don't recognize it. I learn from what I do, how to act towards people how to treat people and how to see how people are. That's something regular knowledge may not help in. We can't understand animals, yet somehow we know when they're mad, catch my drift? I say it's more important to have more wisdom in your daily life, but we also need knowledge as well.
Wisdom and knowledge, in my eyes, have two completely different meanings. Knowledge is something that you can gain by studying and memorization. Wisdom, however, is acquired by experience over time. I think that knowledge and wisdon are both important in our everyday lives, but wisdom can be more useful. If you are wise, than you will have common sense and the ability to tell yourself what the best thing to do is in a variety of situations. If you are knowledgeable, then you only know whatever you memorized. So therefore, wisdom is more beneficial in my opinion.
Knowledge and wisdom are two different things in my opinion. Knowledge is something someone gains through studying and learning.Wisdom is something someone gains by experience and events in their lifes.They are both important in my life because the knowledge gives me intelligence and wisdom gives me a thought in mind of what to do in future events that would come in my life.
i think that wisdom is a thing the gain as your go along in life witch helps you not make mistakes. for example if u went to a bad part of a town were u got jump chances are your not gonna go back there unless you have soemthing important to do there. knowledge is soemthing that u learn in school like book smart. when you learn how to do math or spanish or anything along thos lines is what knowledge is.
To me knowledge and wisdom are somewhat the same thing because they are both knowning information. But, i think that knowlege is learning information for someone eles and Wisdom is learnig from experience.We gain knowledge from other people and or book, newspaper ect.we gain wisdom by experiencing things ourselfs. For instance like our moms are wise about boys because they have been through the experence by dating them and stuff like that. Neither one is more important then another because we need both as much as the other. I know because it's sthe feeling in my gut. SIKE I don't know how i know its just whats poping into my head.
Well personally I would much rather has wisdom over knowledge any day. Well I guess you can really compare this to the apprentice. You know the one where the it was book smart vs. street smart. Like really as much as book smart is good to have street smart is much more useful in our every day life. But I also do believe they go hand in hand, because when you wisdom there’s know end to the knowledge you can learn. But do you still think there’s a good amount of wisdom in the world. I think as the know generation come the world this lose this thing. As the time pass the generation seem to become much lazier and there is nothing we can do to prevent it. So will we every seem to get the wisdom back our will it be gone for every. Will we realizes this and teach the next generation better to prevent the end of it or well is it over.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom is that knowledge is when you know information from books you read and when you learn information from people telling you and learning from your teachers. And wisdom, i think is when you learn it from what you have done in your past and learn form it. I beleive you learn knowledge from reading books and learning from you teachers or elders. You gain wisdom from learning from your mistakes and basically information that you already know withought studying. I beleive wisdom is more important becuase i beleive you need to know more about it, because you talk everyday and i believe that wisdom involves talking because you basically learn how to talk on your own. Plus, i go outside and play football and skateboard and i feel that you would need more wisdom than knowledge becasue you basically do it on your own and learn how to do it on your own and. that is what i feel about knowledge and wisdom, and i beleive wisdom should be more important.
The way that i would put this is that knowledge is something that you know all about, ever detail and its what you have learned, but wisdom can also mean the same thing, you know about something but not everything. You gain more wisdom and it helps you realize whats right from wrong. To learn something you gain the knowledge to know about it and its like if you were to take a test about what you learned like mid - terms we learn about everything from the beging of the school year and we take the test to see how much knowledge we have and what we remeber. So either way knowledge and wisdom means pretty much the exact thing and they are both very much important in our daily life, i mean if we didn't have knowledge how are we suppose to do our bills we have to remember how to do math with our knowledge and wisdom you have to learn some things on your own, plan your life out what you going to do when you get older. This is why i think that are very imortant in our daily life.
to me there is a very big difference between wisdom and knowledge. knowledge to me is knowing about something. for example knowledge of math is having a strong understanding of the concepts of math. also, knowledge to me is only obtained through learing in school or to study about something. wisdom on the other hand to me is an understanding of life and everything in it. for example an old man has alot more wisdom than a young man, no matter what their level of education is. to me wisdom is only obtained by living through everyday life and learning from your everyday life experiences. to me, wisdom is way more important in everyday life than knowledge is. yes, knowledge can be very helpful at times, but wisdom is always better to have. wisdom can help you get through any trouble or any hardship while knowledge can only help you fix something or get something done.
Knowledge is to know to now a lot about stuff like math and science. Wisdom is to know a lot about life. With wisdom you can tell what to do and what not to do in your life. With knowledge you have the brains to do math problems in your head or figure out something that someone can’t figure out. We get knowledge by going to school and listening to what the teacher tells you. You gain wisdom by doing stuff. If you make a mistake you gain the knowledge not to do that again. If you have wisdom you know already not to do anything stupid. I don’t know witch one is more important in my life. I use both of them everyday. I know because I do. Sometimes I use knowledge. Sometimes I use wisdom in my daily life. Every day is different in my life. Most of the time I use wisdom instead of knowledge.
In my opinion, I feel that knowledge is like learning from a book such as education, and wisdom is like learning from your mistakes and such. Wisdom is like your experience with anything. We all use this in our daily life. Each and everyday we have a new experience with life. Knowledge isn't much to me because once your learn it, it will so fade away even if you memorize it sometime in your life you will forget it. Knowledge is pointless if you think about it because it is never remembered but wisdom on the other side is your first experience with anything and you will always remember the first experience of something you do. Also when you get out of school and have a job, the knowledge just stops but with wisdom you have it everyday without even realizing it.
With knowledge comes wisdom and with wisdom comes knowledge.pretty much the same and have about the same concept. you gain knowledge with the things around you for example tv,books,older people, knowledge is just knowing and learning.wisdom takes time,the more things you see,bascially you live and you learn.its one thing to know something and another to experience it and know about it.in my daily life its hard to say which is more important. knowledge is what gets me through the day.there are so many things to learn and remember, and down the line if you need to use the same method or use what you learned,from the knowledge you gained it will really help. =)xox bunje

Knowledge and wisdom are completly differnt. Knowlegde is something you get from a book, something that is taught to you threw an emotionless process. Wisdom is something taught to you threw life. That's why old people, like my Nanny, are the smartest people alive. They learned so much by going threw life seeing, feeling, and battling everything that gets thrown at them. They suffer threw emotions which is something a book can't really teach you. I highly doubt a book can teach you pain, both physical and mental. Just knowing something isn't good enought, you have to know the feeling, and be ready for it. You can read and image what its like to see the world, and read all the books you wants about the world, but you never get the full effect. Wisdom is more important by far. Do you really think you can surive a day on the streets because you read about them in a book? No, you'll get your ass handed to you in a bown paper bag. You have to know what your up againest all the time. Weither its in the streets, driving, or just plan living life. And i only know this because the Greatest, Most-Awesomest person alive taught me everything i need to know about life, because she's gone threw everything. Her name is Nanny Costello, well, i dont know her first name, but everyone calls her Nanny. She's my great-grandmother and she's a 20 year old traped in the body of an 89 year old. She doesnt look a day over 38 and she's got so many stories. She's lived threw it all. From the Great Depression of the 1930's, to World War Two. She's seen, heard, and felt everything. If that isn't wisdom there, then someone need's to change the diffination to match Nanny, because no one is aloud to be wrong about Nanny.
Knowledge and Wisdom is almost the same. Knowledge is understanding or skill gained by experience. Wisdom is what learn from life. You can build up your knowledge by reading books, learing in class, and what more experienced people tell you like older people. You can gain wisdom by learning from things around you and learning from your own mistakes. You learn from your mistakes.Like if you do something wrong you know what you did so you try to fix it the next time. So you learned from it. I personally think that knowledge is more important because of the fact that you have to know how to do certain things in order to succeed in life. Like job interviews and things like that. But Wisdom is also very important because wisdom is when you learn from your mistakes. If you continously make mistakes eventually you would learn from them and try your best not to make it again.
The concepts of wisdom and knowledge are very similar, but they have many differences.Knowledge is something you learn about when either you teavh yourself or you are taught by somebody else. Wisdom is when you are taught but you have certain guidelines, or reasons to use what you have learned. Wisdom can also be earned from experiences that you have had and know not to do again. I believe that wisdom is more important in my daily life. I know because wisdom is something that you can live life by, and knowlegde is something that you cannot do anything with unless you have wisdom.
the difference between knowlge is information gained by reading books and going to school, things that help u progress in life. Wisdom is similar but its the things you have learned by your past mistakes, somewhat of a common sense from your own chices kind of thing. you learn knowledge by going to school and reading books ,but wisdom can be taught by your parents. I would think that wisdom would be most important because if we were not wise in life we would be making alot of mistakes we cant fix. For instance being wise with your money is a phrase used alot that shows you the important of wisdom. If we wernt wise with our money how would we be able to function in this country.
IN MY OPINION, KNOWLEDGE IS SOMETHING THAT IS LEARNED. SOMEONE TEACHES YOU THINGS IN LIFE AND YOU LEARN THEM. THAT IS YOUR KNOWLEDGE. WISDOM IS SOMETHING YOU LEARN FROM EXPERIENCES AND LIFE. ALL THE MISTAKES YOU MAKE IN YOUR LIFE, YOU LEARN FROM THEM AND THAT IS YOUR WISDOM. WE GAIN KNOWLEDGE BY WANTING TO LEARN NEW THINGS. WE GAIN WISDOM BY MAKING MISTAKES IN LIFE. THE MISTAKES WE MAKE, WE LEARN FROM THEM. I FEEL THAT WISDOM IS MORE IMPORTANT. THE THINGS WE DO THAT ARE WRONG ARE EASIER FOR ME TO LEARN FROM IT.
To me knowledge is you know something, and wisdom is over time you will exsperence. The way that you would gain knowledge is it just come to you and you learn some of it. But wisdom you get from Just being there and soaking it all up. In your daily life knowledge is more important because you need to know things in your daily life. Wisdom is something you need in the long run.
People get knowledge and wisdom mixed up all the time because they think that they are the same, just different words meaning the same thing. Knowledge is different from wisdom in these ways. Knowledge is something that you get from researching things. An example would be if you were to study the Polynesian languages and then explain it to someone. The person that you would explain this to would be impressed because you have so much information about the subject and question that they are asking. There's different types of knowleges like reading a book, the knowledge of knowing that the person is there,and the knowlege of knowing how to behave. Wisdom is something that you accumulate over the years. Mostly you gain wisdom from life experiences and problems. Grandparents are said to have a lot of wisdom because they've been around for a long time and have seen and experienced many things. An example of this would be if you had wisdom from learning not to argue with or hit your parents. I have both wisdom and knowledge. I have wisdom from what I've been through in life and knowledge from the things that I research. Whenever there is a problem with the computer my mom always ask me to come and fix it because she knows that I have the knowledge and skill to do this because I major in computers. A person could ask me anything a any country in the world and I would be able to give you from 5-10 facts about it. You can never have too much wisdom or knowledge. There is only room to gain more.
Knowledge and wisdom are not as close as they seem. I used to think they were the same thing, sort of llike synonyms for eachother, however, it is the total opposite. When you learn your ABC's and 123's this is having knowledge. Knowing 1+1=2 is also basic knowledge. Knowing c-a-t spells "cat" is also knowledge. You learn these things usually from a teacher or parent, basically anyone else. Knowledge is very important to have and it definitely gets you far in life to have an abundance of knowledge. There is never too much knowledge. There is not a soul in the world that knows everything. This is simply impossible. This is why knowledge is valuable. Knowledge is valuable because you can always learn more. It never ends. Even if it is something small; it is still gaining knowledge. Wisdom, however, seems to be different. One gains wisdom over time. At five years old, you may have the knowledge to know that d-o-g spells "dog", but a five year old is not wise. One becomes wise usually from life experiences or problems they know about or have gone through. You can't teach someone to have wisdom. It simply occurs in one once they are wise. It is kind of hard to explain, however, being wise is nothing you really have to go to school to learn. You can be the smartest "school
smarts" person in the world, and because of you not being wise, something could happen. You could be smart and beable to spel big words, but when it comes to the advice department, you fail. Not always, but wise people tende to have many morals to stories and seem to know everything about the world. You can't learn wisdom. It derives from experience, so once years go by, I gain both knowledge, constantly , and wisdom too. One day, when I'm a grandmother, my grandchild will tell me that I'm wise and I'll be proud to know that.
To me Knowledge is something u know about school or something thier, Wisdom is something you learned and will or use in your everyday life. The way wwe gain wisdom if by daily experiences, and you gain knowledge by someone telling you of their experiences and wisdoom. In my daily life, they are both important to me, because, i use my Knoledge in school, and my wisdom ooutside school with my friends and at my house; basicaly everywere.
The difference is sort of hard to explain. The people in our lives who teach us and give us knowledge have wisdom. They have already learned a lot. Going through life, we have to admit to our mistakes and learn from them. "A word from the wise" is one quote that I thought of when I read this question. People who have wisdom have gained it through their life. Knowledge can be gained by listening. Wisdom is more of a situation you learn from. In my life, I'm still learning and building up on knowledge in school, which I will continue to do through college. But I think that knowledge isn't stictly from what you learn in school. My mom has taught me many things, such as every day things around the house(Yes, chores do suck, but if you don't know how to do them.. are you just going to depend on your spouse to cook and clean..nope not me.) In my opinion knowlege is more important because knowledge is power, and wisdom is experience. So which one do I pick? I don't know. Maybe later in life I'll know.
Well to me knowledge and wisdom are very similar. But there are differences. Knowkedge is something that you already know its already in youre mind. Wisdom is really something that you learn througout youre life. You begin to learn new things that will guide you threw youre everyday life. Wisdom tells you what to and not to do in youre everyday life. I see it as an enotion. It may sound weird but thats what i think about it. Knowledge is what you learn and gain both are very similar but to know something is different than to have wisdom.
you have the power to know something the wisdom part is that you have already experienced it.
Thus far, it seems as though almost everyone is in agreement on this one; that is, with age and experience comes wisdom. I share that same belief, although I do believe that knowledge is an intergral part of gaining wisdom. For example, the concepts that we learn about together in English class all have their root in knowledge; in other words, I teach you the things I have learned from both books AND experience. However, the "big" questions we talk about, those concepts can only be taught so much--the rest of it will only go as far as your experience lets it go. I can tell you what I think and what I know, but until you experience those types of things on your own, there is a limit to what you will "really" be able to understand. Which is a good thing, as far as I'm concerned, because then you can lend your own perspective to a concept, teach it to someone else, and your knowledge and wisdom both will only increase. What could possible be better than that?
The difference between knowledge and wisdom is knowledge is facts, truths, or principles from a study or general education. However, wisdom is something you learn from a past or age with good judgment. It’s mostly stories from the past that have a lesson or meaning, to help another. You gain knowledge threw school, books, facts, education; but you gain wisdom threw life, it’s everything ypu experience; everything you’ve learn, good or bad; its common sense most of the time. Both are very important however, wisdom doesn’t help you get a job knowledge does, and knowledge can’t buy wisdom. To me wisdom is more important just because I learn so much in the past and I seen so many things in the past and knowledge isn’t the answers to everything wisdom is. Its not written in a books or it on facts; its on my life and my experiences, its stories I read in the bible and stories from my family. Knowledge can help you threw a job but it wisdom that helps you threw life.
Wisdom means the knowledge and experience needed to make sensible decisions and judgments, or the good sense shown by the decisions and judgments made. Knowledge means
general awareness or possession of information, facts, ideas, truths, or principles. They almost mean the same thing to me but with wisdom you have more experience on life and with knowledge you know more about life. We learn knowledge but being taught and we gain wisdom by learning from our mistakes and really just going through life. I think wisdom is more important in life because you got to know what’s going on and what to expect in everyday life. I know this because I heard it somewhere before I can’t really remember but I heard it. that’s why I that it is better to have more wisdom then knowledge to me.
i think knowledge is what is known. Knowledge are facts, ideas, and stuff that you learn. we learn knowledge by being taught. in wisdom we learned in our mistakes. i think in wisdom you have more experience.wisdom is also something u learn form the past. basically i think that both knowledge and wisdom are the same. we use knowledge in our everyday life because we learn somthing new everyday.
There isn’t much of a difference between knowledge and wisdom because you learn both throughout life. The thing is that knowledge is something you learn from books and people. You gain knowledge from go to school and you become smarter through it. Things like math, reading and science are knowledge. They’re things we need to learn that make us smarter. Wisdom is what we learn whether we want to or not. It’s kind of like the say “you live and you learn.” As you grow up you go through many different fasces and you learn about life. You learn that you don’t always get what you want and you’re going to cry over someone who isn’t worth it at least once. I think that knowledge can be forgotten, I mean not everyone remembers everything they learn in school, and wisdom is never forgotten. Wisdom is just something you can’t help but learn, but without it you can’t live life.
knowledege is what you will learn in school for example books AND TEACHER SHOWING YOU. WISDOM IS ALWAY GONNA BE IN YOUR LIFE. YOU LIVE IT AND EXPERINCE IT .TO SHOW US WHAT WE DID WRONG IN OUR LIVES . WISDOM COULD AS BE LIKE A DECISION IN OUR LIFE FOR EXAMPLE IF YOUR FRIENDS WANT YOU TO DO SOME THING YOU DOONT WANT TO DO.KNOWLEDGE IS LIKE IF SOME ONE IS TEACHING YOU WHAT TO DO FOR EXAMPLE YOU PARENTS .
The difference between knowledge and wisdom.Knowledge is knowing something,aware of it.Wisdom is smart, wise like you gain it.As you go on in lfe.You gain knowledge by learning stuff. And wisdom is something that you get oput of in life.Wisdom is more important in daily life because you need to know how to get by in life. Such as knowing right from wrong. And how to get by in life.
Knowledge is the things that you learn and wisdom is what you gain. Knowledge you can get from going to school. Wisdom is what you get from real life experiences. I think that knowledge is more important in daily life because with out knowledge you won't be able to get a good job. You also know what to do in a situation.
wisdom is when you already have a lot of knowledge.you've experiemced a lot and understand a lot. being wise means you know almost everything and are full of usefull information. knowledge is almost like the learning process. you need to gain knowledge to be smart or wise. to have knowledge means you know someting. to me i guess having knwoledge is more important then being wise because i can be full of knowledge my whole life but being wise is somthing not everyone can gain and it most often accurs in your later years.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom to me they are most likely alike.See but knowledge is what you already know in life and wisdom is lefe experience what you want to learn or going to learn.To gain knowledge by knowing what you know and knowing it you get to know even more.Wisdom is life experience like i said when you go through something than you see whats right or wrong thats wisdom now you know.To me i think wisdom is more important to me but then again i be thinking knowledge also so tome they both okay i gues both i have in the same level.Now me knowing this i just know i cant really explain it.See in life i know alot of things just like alot of people do to even more than me.Having to do with school and at home even other things is knowledge things we know and thats good in life to know many things.Knowledge may be impotant to people more than wisdom to some os the other way around but to me they both the same to me i dont see them no different.

In the sense of having knowledge and having wisdom, wisdom will take you farther. When you have wisdom, you know more important things. When you have knowledge, it varies. You can have a lot of un-useful information that just is imbedded in your head. Wisdom is having information that you gained from previous experiences or other people. Knowledge is caused from other people or things that told you something that stuck in your head. Not all knowledge is correct. Some people can know something, but its not accurate. Knowledge is what you know or beleive is true, while wisdom is what you learned. A person gains knowldege from other people or anything, accurate or not. A person gains wisdom from another person or previous experiences. When you have wisdom, you already have learned from mistakes and are more wise since them. Knowledge is just what you beleive is right. In daily life, wisdom is more important. You use wisdom for every day life. A person can study and study how to drive, and retain all useless knowledge, but when it comes down to it, its between you and your wisdom. If you have wisdom, daily tasks such as driving is just common sense, not book work. I know that wisdom is more important becayse it can help you acheive daily tasks and goals so much easier. Some people have a harder time retaining information, but they should realize that its really just in your head. If you put your mind to it, you can acheive anything and everything you desire. Wisdom is applied more to every day life in comparison to knowledge, because wisdom is a matter of making sure what you know is right and applying it to daily life to make sure its right.
I was rasied to belive that knowlege and wisdom are two very diffrent things. The definition of knowlege is the knowing of something. It may also be known as book smarts. Knowlege comes from learning and education it is very useful although you can't go through life with just book smarts. Wisdom coms with age. The older you are the wiser you become. Wisdom is the more like a greater form of common sense. I believe it holds more power over knowlege because wisdom comes with years and age. Although you will get far with a education people who have wisdom have more to offer because they have experinced alot more than people who may not have been through situations like that before.
This is a hard question to answer, but here it goes. To tell the truth I had to look both the words up and think about what they both meant. Knowledge is the fact that you know something. You can gain knowledge by reading and learning from others that teach you. Now on the other hand wisdom is when you know something by sight or experience. When you go through life you gain wisdom. In this time and age I think daily, knowledge is most important because if you don’t learn anything then your not going anywhere in life. But in all I think that wisdom is better than knowledge. This is because you have to have knowledge to gain wisdom and if you go through your whole life without gaining wisdom then your life was kind of meaningless. Because you go through life to learn and if you don’t gain wisdom then what do you have.
hmm ... I actually had to think about this one before I started typing. Im not gonna start with knowledge because everybody else did =] wisdom is definitely something that you gain of time. thats why I believe that old people contain useful wisdom. but they gain their wisdom from knowledge. knowledge is knowing about something. wisdom, to me, is knowing the depths of the knowledge that you have; when you think deeper into it and use it to your advantage. you gain knowledge from learning about mistakes and learning about important information around you in everyday life ... stuff like that. I believe that knowledge is more important in my life. Im not wise, and Im sure alot of other kids arent because they havent had enough experience to be wise enough to tell someone else about life and how it works. Im learning just as much as others are and I once I hit 90 ... IF I hit 90 ... then I'll be wise. until then I'm just sticking to what I know .. or what I think I know =/
In the battle between knowledge and wisdom, wisdom always wins. Knowledge in my opinion is stuff that you learn from a book or a teacher. Knowledge is things like math or writing or anything you learn in school. Wisdom in my opinion is something that you can only gain through experience. Wisdom is something like hitting the ball in baseball, because the more times you try the better you get. I think for school and college knowledge is more important, but once you get out into the real world wisdom is the most important thing. They are both really good things to have in any situation, but a person with wisdom will always beat a person with knowledge.
I think the difference between knowledge and wisdom would be that you get knowledge from like going to school and stff like that and wisdom u get by learning from experiences in your life. Ualualy older people have more wisdom then say like an 13 year old kid because they have went through more stuff in there life and learned from it. and uasualy a kid that has just got out of college has more knowledge then lets say an 88 year old man because there younger and have a fresher mind...As of now knowledge is more important in my life now because i need to pass school.
Wisdom to me seems like it is acquired knowledge you gain from experience. No book can really teach wisdom because it is more of what you feel,like natural instincts. For instance, my wisdom tells me that Oakcrest doesn't have many snow days! What book do you know can teach you that? Or how an old woman like my grandmother always know how to get stains out of any type of fabric (i.e. peroxide for blood stains, hair sprays for stains on leather) Gaining wisdom takes trial and error, but knowledge is passed on so it's simple for the most part. I guess wisdom can be called "sense". Not common sense though, because it is not common.
I think wisdom is actually necassary before knowledge and you don't have to be old to be wise, you just need a little experience. Without wisdom, you wouldn't know how to use the knowledge you receive everyday. Without wisdom, knowlege is as worthless as a penny with a hole in it.Wisdom has taught me that from now on, I need to do my blogs.
Well like most people, i think the difference between knowledge and wisdom is that knowledge is something you gain from others like teachers and authors that write the books you read and wisdom is more like something you know by seeing it or experiencing it. wisdom is also something you gain over a period of time. Wisdom is like common sense and its the things you learned in life through the experience of it. But even though they are both different in a way they are still the same because you gain both from different life experiences. We gain knowledge by going to school, and reading books. Also by accepting the things that we've done and learning from them. There are many ways you gain knowledge but the most common ways are from school. I think we gain wisdom through a period of time. We gain it from our past and other experiences. To me i think wisdom is more important because the things that you've seen or learned from in the past are not things that can be taught to someone else because they are not in books. Knowledge is just something you learn to get you through school or maybe a job but what good is knowledge if you forget it throughout your life or if you cant use it for some experiences if you havent been taught anything about that certain experince?. Like Manuela said knowledge can help can help you through a job or maybe school but it is wisdom that will help you through life and i agree with that.
Ah an easy question that i have dealt with before. Before anyone can tell the difference between the two, one has to know the similarities. Both wisdom and knowledge are used to deal with situations correctly. The difference between the two lies in how and where they are used in situations. Knowledge is used and only used in situations where you have had experience in the situation and use it to accurately deal with the situation whether it be a math test you took a year ago or a fight between someone you have fought before. Wisdom is the ability to discern a situation and know how to decisively and correctly deal with the situation. Wisdom you could say in some situations common sense, insight, or just good judgement. Wisdom in which most people see it as, is the use of prior knowledge in a similar past experience with insight to deal with it properly. That view is true in a sense but ultimately when you get right down to it, wisdom is your ability to judge a situation and see it for what it is and thus know how to properly deal with it correctly. To gain knowledge is simple, to go through a situation and learn from it to use it again if the same situation arises again. In order to gain wisdom you have to broaden your mind not with past experiences or events but rather the scope of the situation to see the reason behind it and how it came to be. Both are in important in daily lives since each can be used in situations and cant be used in others. For example, wisdom cant be used by a person to win in a contest of speed to solve of problem to a person who has knowledge of the problem and already knows how to solve it. Inversely, knowledge can't be used by a person that doesnt have any wisdom to solve a situation that they dont have any experience in. In that situation the person that has great wisdom is far more likely to solve the problem than a person who relies heavily on knowledge of the past to solve situations. Neither is more important in the other in daily life. In order to go in life and solve different situations, you need to use both wisdom and knowledge to solve the situation where they are needed most.
Knowledge is something that you can learn from reading books and going to school. its someonething that someone can teach you. Wisdom is something that you learn from your own experiences. when you make a mistake and know not to do it again thats wisdom. its probly true that the older you are the more wisdom you have because you been through more. not all the time though because if you keep making the same mistake then their not using their wisdom. you can gain knowledge from the computer, reading, parents and friends. The only way you can gain wisdom is by getting through a hard situation and learing from it. i think that both of them are equally needed in everyday life. you need knowledge to get wisdom. from wisdom you can gain knowledge on what you should or should not do. i know this from my own experiences.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom is that knowledge is something that is learned by someone teachin it to you. kinda like readin a book a going to school is how you get knowledge. Wisdom is just something that you learn by your own experiences. wisdom is like if you have done something right you'll probally keep do the same thing over and over but if you have made a mistake you wouldnt do it again. Mostly older people are have more knowledge and wisdom then someone younger but not always.you gain knowledge from books,computers,family and maybe friends. You gain wisdom by goin through a bad situation and just getting through it. I think that knowledge and wisdom are both important in everyday life because you use both of them about the same. I know this because without wisdom you wont gain knowledege between right from wrong.
I believe that there is a big difference between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is something that you know already. You know what is around you and what is going on. Knowledge is the known. I think that wisdom is common sense and it is the stuff that you do and you dont think about it to much. An example of wisdom to me is when there is a hot oven on and something is cooking and you know not to run up and touch the hot stove because you will burn yourself. Knowledge is knowing that the oven will burn your hand because its at such a hot temperature. We gain knowledge by learning things on a daily bases. When you are in school and outside of school there are things around you that you are always learning. From when we are born to now we are always learning new things. We learn how to read and eventually how to get a job and work. I think that knowledge is more important to me becuase without learning you wouldnt know anything. It's something that really important to me in my life. If i never learned anything, than i dont think i would have any wisdom. so learning is the best thing for me.
well the diffrence between the two is that knowledge is what you know and wisdom is knowledge but it is wat you believe.you can get knowledge from going to school but you get wisdom from personal experince. wisdom is more important, and i know this because you learn from your expeince with thing in every day life.
Well . I feel as if knowledge is more about your book smarts . How well you can write , read , do mat , science , etc. And I think that wisdom , is something you gain from life experiences or things you've done/seen that've impacted you in some what . We gain knowledge by listening , doing well in school , and keep your grades up and such . Wisdom is something you can't force , or learn in books . It comes with time and experiences and life basically . In daily life , I personally think knowledge is more important , although in the long run I do think it's more important to be wise .
Knowledge and Wisdom are both similar and different to each other. Knowledge, to me, is how much you know. Not necessarily just book smart, but just being able to retain things that you've learned in the past. Wisdom is sort of like common sense. The more wisdom you have, the quicker you'll be able to react in certain situations. If someone is new to a certain situation, they might not be sure how to react. Whereas, if someone has been in that situation before, they'll already know what to do and how to react. overall, knowledge and wisdom are very important to everyday life. But, i don't think one of them can exist without the other.
knowledge is what you get from school from books and teachers but wisdom is what you get like from the streets. wisdom is what you learn from like the streets as in what and what not to do and how to do it. you would gain knowledge by listening in school and paying attention and things like that. with wisdom either you need to experience somethings or you could learn from someone close (close people will usually tell the truth) whos been through enough to help you out with things. i think wisdom is more important because if ur in the street and doing ur things you should know what ur doing cuz you dont wanna slip up.
Knowledge is what you know and learn, and wisdom is the ability to use the knowledge. The diffrence between them is knowing, and using. We gain knowledge by educating ourselves, and studying, and we gain wisdom by putting the knowledge into our everyday lives. To me, in my daily life, wisdom is more important, becuase you can know so much, but not know how to expand the knowledge, and use the knowledge, so really, the knowledge is worthless if you cant apply it. I belive this theory, becuase you always hear people talking about things that they dont even understand themselves. However, with the use of wisdom, it seems as if you have more knowledge by understanding what your talking about. So all though these topics differ, you need both to really use one or the other correctly.

Knowledge and wisdom are often mistaken for the same thing. They are infact totaly different. Knowledge is simply being educated, knowing what things are. Wisdom on the otherhand is knowledge that you can apply. It's knowing what to do in certain situations that you may be put in. To gain knowledge is far easier than to gain wisdom. To gain knowledge, you can be taught by another person, you can gain it by reading, and there are many other situations in which you can gain it. Wisdom is gained through life experiences. If you touch a hot stove and get burned, you then become wiser the second time when you know not to touch the stove. I think that wisdom is more important to your life because as I said, in my opinion, wisdom can be applied more to your life. I can't tell you which one is really more important because it is a matter of you opinion. It depends on what your definition of wisdom and knowledge are.
Wisdom and knowledge go hand and hand. There is a difference between these two words but many people seem to have different opinions about them. My perception of Wisdom is something you gain throughout time or experiences. Wisdom is something you can gain in everyday life just by going through a conflict. Wisdom is something you can always look back on and can help you for future conflicts. Knowledge is the something taught for some. Knowledge is something that you need in everyday life. There is always a test in life and a problem that needs to be solved. I think Reasoning is a part of knowledge because your skills of thinking through something or analyzing a problem need to be thought through. This is what makes me think knowledge is more necessary for everyday life. Wisdom takes time and you may not know how to deal with that problem. Thinking through a problem and being smart about the solution is the real key.

Well unlike some others i know what both words and didnt have to think about anything to answer this question. just like some of the others said wisdom comes with age, and knowledge is something anyone can have. wisdom is like after a certain amount of time you are more advanced in, and knowledge just grows. sometimes you can say wisdom is the approach on what you know, informing others and helping yourself through everyday life. knowledge is like in school when you go to that class you hate and listen and learn what they teach just because you want to pass their class. its not always you really understand what is being said but you try and pick u some knowledge of the concept. i think having wisdom is more important. its just like street and book smart, using what you learn. its all good and gravy i know 2+2=4 but its me knowing the right time to use it that makes it wisdom, instead of another learned concept. i know that wisdom is important because for example, when im in a certain class i often wonder what im doing here, wil this help me in any way in life, can i use the things i learn and apply them to ME.. most of the time the answer is NO but i chose to sit and learn anyone, gaing more knowledge. I mean thats the only way i cant think of it. but i dont have a hat on so im running out of thoughts! Quiona signing off...
The difference between knowledge and wisdom i think is knowledge is the known facts like book smart and wise is knowing facts but all around like smart in ever aspect of knowledge. knowledge is something you know and wisdom is something you gain from learning. knowledge comes with learning during any age to be wise u have to experience a lot in life. I also think that knowledge you learn from books and wisdom you learn threw the years as you get older. They are also kind of the same you gain them both through your life experience kind of, like to have knowledge you have to learn which is wisdom.
The difference between Knowledge and Wisdom are knowledge will help you in every day question that someone might ask but wisdom will be what helps you to solve any predicament that life might throw at you. Knowledge to me is what you learn in a book or are told. Wisdom are things you understand without being thought. I believe that wisdom is more important because from wisdom you can gain knowledge.
Knowledge vs. wisdom, who wins? uhh... If I had to pick one, I would say wisdom. Knowledge is any little random thing you may learn throughout the day. Everybody gains some sort of knowledge everyday whether it's noticing there is a little stain on your carpet that is hard to notice or to realizing that your father is actually a transexual. I don't know why I said that, but I think it fit. Wisdom, on the other hand is knowing right from wrong in certain situations one may encounter. Wisdom is usually acquired through time and experience opposed to knowledge. Gaining wisdom doesn't just happen everyday. It can take a whole lifetime before some people finally realize what's right and wrong. Alright, I made my point. Now I'm out like a fat chick in dodgeball. Peace out Mrs. Bunje.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom is that Knowledge is like intelliigence. And wisdom is how u use it. For example wisdom is when some one ask you to smoke and you say no. That is a wise decision. Knowledge is like 2+2=4.
Knowledge and wisedom are gain the same way. You learn to so you can know and to be wise. Or in other words you could be very smart. But Not street smart. Street smart is like being wise. smart being smart is having knowledge. If i had to pick i would pick Wisdom. Only because i think it could take me father in life.
Knowledge and wisdom are two very similar words but they are also very different. To my self knowledge is what you learn in school like facts, theories, or equations. Now wisdom on the other hand is something I think you gain through experiences in your life that you learn from. . It’s just what your parents say after you make a mistake, most parents will say something like learn from your mistake and don’t do it again. And if I had to choose witch one I thought was more important in every day life I would say wisdom because wisdom is the knowledge you have from life experiences and it will help you with important decisions that you will have to make in the future that could change your life forever.
i had to really think about this one because I was thinking well isnt knowledge and wisdom like the same ? as I started to think about it more its not so much the same thing. knowledge is knowing information and wisdom is the knowledge of living. everybody gains knowledge every day of their life. You learn something new every day so isn’t that knowledge? To me you gain wisdom over time. You don’t just gain wisdom because were still young we don’t know too much about living. There both very important because with no knowledge you would have no wisdom. With no wisdom you wouldn’t know too much about life or anything else. This is my own opinion so thats how I know =]
Knowledge and wisdom at first thought may seem to be the same thing, but after some thought one will realize that they are very different. Wisdom is a collection of life experiences that teach you important lessons. You are wise from living. Knowledge is what makes up your intelligence, it's all the stuff that your taught in school. Wisdom is something that you gain from living, it is acquired through life experiences. Knowledge however, is gained through reading and things of that nature. I don't think that wisdom is anymore important than knowledge in daily life. They are both very important. If you had only wisdom or only knowledge than you would still make stupid decisions that you will most likely regret. A balance between wisdom and knowledge is the best thing possible for someone.
Knowledge and wisdom have a few similarties, but are still very different. Wisdom is some thing that you can only get with time. But you can get knowledge in a matter of minutes. In my opinion you can gain knowledge by learning new things. Gaining knowledge is not hard at all, it is gaining wisdom that's the trouble. For instance I can gain knowledge of math problems,or a fact I learn in science in a few minutes. But wisdom is a whole different subject. I really think that you can only gain wisdom with age. I could more knowledge than a sixty five year old man but chances are that this man has gained more knowledge in half of his lifetime than I have so far. I think that knowledge and wisdom are both equally important in daily life. I gain knowledge every day in school,which I will probably use every day. If I have the wisdom to not make the same mistake that I was foolish enough to make before, because of what I experienced over that time.
To me knowledge is something that you learned during your life and wisdom is something you were born with. You can only gain wisdom with age because after your expirences during life you develope an instinct to do whats right. You can gain knowledge by going to school or listening to your parents. Knowledge is like book smarts and wisdom helps you during life problems. They are both important but if i had to pick on i would pick wisdom becase you need that to live a better and longer life because you learn from mistakes that people made to make there life bad and short
knowledge and wisdom might seem to be the same, but they are different in a lot of ways. first of all knowledge is acquaintance with facts, truths, or principles, as from study or investigation. that. and wisdom is knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as to action. well in easier terms knowledge is basically facts , and things you can learn just by someone telling you. and wisdom is more like things that you gain, going through certain experiences. you can gain knowledge a lot easier and faster then wisdom. to gain wisdom there has to be something that happenes. i think both wisdom and knowledge are both equally important. without knowledge, you could make nothing of your life basically. you need to know things to go to college, or get a job or have kids. everything takes knowledge. and wisdom is a lot deeper and without it you would never learn from your mistakes.
Knowledge is the things that you know and wisdom is learning how to use the things you know. I would define the concept of knowledge as the act, fact or state of knowing, and wisdom is the quality of being wise and smart. We gain knowledge by the facts, things that happened and what we see. That is what makes we know about things. Wisdom is gained with experiences, and that is probably the big difference between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is based in facts and what we see, but once you go thru them, you experienced them, than it becomes part of your wisdom. I think that knowledge is more important in my daily life, because I use it more. For example, as an exchange student, when happens something that I don’t understand in school, most of the times, I use my knowledge to figure out what is going on, what do I have to do and where should I go.
It also happens in tests that I take in school. Sometimes there’s questions on it that I don’t know, or that I didn’t know that was going to be on the test. Then, if I think a little more, I always remember that I already learned that in Brazil, than I can figure out what to do with it. Most of the times, I get it right by doing that. Knowledge has been the most helpful thing so far on my exchange.
To me knowledge is something that you can gather from a book or the paper or from other people around you. I think that wisdom can only be gained through time and after you have experienced it before. Like i said oyu gain knowledge from everything that is around you, and you gain wisdom through time. I think knowledge is more important in my daily life because i am always reading a different book and because of that i am able to gain a lot of knowledge.
From my family dinner conversations to the long car rides with my parents or friends i have grown to learn so many different things. Things about life and people. Knowledge in my my opinion is something a person aquires and wisdom comes with age. Although doesn't a person have to live and learn in order to become wise and when one learns through experience, that is knowledge. So more or less isn't knowledge the step a person takes in order to become wise. If i were to sterotype i would look at the elderly and think they are wise. The elderly have lived most of their life and gained great knowledge about so many different life expeirences. So all in all i think a person will gain knowledge throughout life and in they end that knowledge will become ones wisedom.
The difference betwen knowledge and wisdom is that Knowledge is knowing something and understanding or already knowing. I feel that wisdom is a case of understanding and knowing beyond what you know. Its hard to explain bhow you would be able to gain these parts because i feeel that you would ghain them by studying and gathering informationyou never know. I think its very important in our life because it helps in everything we do also helps us become somebody and be somebody when we grow up.
There is a very large difference between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is something that is only aduired through the will to learn. I define it more as book smart. Or, being aware of the current events in the world. While wisdom is something only aquired by the people who will admit to their mistakes and learn from them. Also, wisdom is gained by watching other peoples actions and learning from them as well. To become wise is to know what your morals are and think about what your actions will cause before you do them. Wisdom is more important in my daily life. Wisdom affects everything. Wether I chose to try in school and how I speak to people. The amount of wisdom I hold affects all of my decisions everyday.
i would go back to when i was 14 in the 8th grade i dont really know why i just would because that was one of the best grades i think. if i was alive back then thing would be really weird because all that i know now then like just going back would freak me out because eveything would seem liek the same but little diffrent. some reason i owuldnt wanna go back is because if you back your gonna have to relive your life and do all of what you did you can change your past one way or another it will coem back to you.
