#### [Greetings To You All](#) Weekend is soon frienda am so happy about that. I don't have classes in the weekend this month and next month. The contest is all about wisdom and is very important to have wisdom especially as a steemian, we all need to make use of the wisdom we have when necessary to avoid some kind of disappointment. I thank @eveetim for hosting this contest. ![B69zEhWZA8UBY2uvCm2jhayjPd2uZ8oUJxf1rwSUF4uHgxipUWDtn5e2sJSaioRr2qFqM2t1AZY6ZBL6ZBKovFPoTjeBTRwGXrxs51zW.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRQfTFBywBhUXGAzY9RVL7JisFvXHArKiwYAVCuP6soqq/B69zEhWZA8UBY2uvCm2jhayjPd2uZ8oUJxf1rwSUF4uHgxipUWDtn5e2sJSaioRr2qFqM2t1AZY6ZBL6ZBKovFPoTjeBTRwGXrxs51zW.jpeg) [source](https://pixabay.com/es/illustrations/ai-generado-pareja-anciano-cuadro-8344349/) #### [What do you understand by the word wisdom?](#) The word wisdom is a very popular word and it has always been popular since the days of Solomon in the bible, a very wise man full of wisdom. Wisdom therefore is known as the ability for a person to make a decision mainly based on the combination of experience, knowledge, and understanding too. You will hardly see an inexperienced person who has wisdom except is a natural gift from God. #### [Do you think great wisdom comes with age or anyone can possess it?](#) Great wisdom doesn't come with age at all even though we get more experience as we grow. Anyone can possess wisdom especially when the person has encountered alot of things in life. Everyday we learn new things and we also learn from other people's mistakes too. ![5ShzsKnKF7vppGeV6VN3m3GSDcLoRruAhMmifZtFSDkYScaWSCsYQ3DKxTHHFhXHFdmt3zAc4V8JY8wAtxMU7csySnUG2NLBJArdqGqAtDBw1GaR2XU7BjV2YkA4asyzRkrygqP1x45FGLpmUwAoqS9L.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmb7nFpjztqw9AeBwqqQiu7tqzCjBzVAa65smwjY5Jo8z3/5ShzsKnKF7vppGeV6VN3m3GSDcLoRruAhMmifZtFSDkYScaWSCsYQ3DKxTHHFhXHFdmt3zAc4V8JY8wAtxMU7csySnUG2NLBJArdqGqAtDBw1GaR2XU7BjV2YkA4asyzRkrygqP1x45FGLpmUwAoqS9L.jpeg) [source](https://www.pexels.com/photo/a-bearded-man-playing-chess-8438923/) Once we have learnt and experienced these things, we begin to know alot of things about life, we begin to know how to solve some certain problems between two or more people. King Solomon is a man of wisdom and is believed he got this ability while growing up. His wiseness should also be one of the major reasons why he became a King in the beginning. Great wisdom doesn't come with age at all, is not a compulsory thing to gain wisdom, is just up to your knowledge and life experience. #### [If wisdom should come with age, do you agree that all elders are wise?](#) I don't agree that all elders are wise, everyone in a similar age range can't just possess such ability because there will be confusion all over the environment whenever the entire elders gather. Over sabi will disorganize everything they plan and everyone will also be talking at the same. Though id all elders are wise there are set of elders who are wiser than the others. In some cases I have encountered some elders that lack wisdom, some of them are educated and this shows that education can't guarantee you wiseness if you are a fool. ![2VZXybTSZJq1AreaDn1D7Jp7ZEvgLC9TvJctofX1ChMgSZruTxntvWZmWxZxBG5V1v7vGoJkPRkkeNXYtYKdXAPoYdKiJt46dZzkTNAMWEKgpbZxPe7uCSDqLnbgksdk5TTYBkWw8cUeK9u5cVRsXnXkQJS.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNmxaYgR7wntWHR7nTiC5NtXS9LYApdXMJz8GPL1sLV6S/2VZXybTSZJq1AreaDn1D7Jp7ZEvgLC9TvJctofX1ChMgSZruTxntvWZmWxZxBG5V1v7vGoJkPRkkeNXYtYKdXAPoYdKiJt46dZzkTNAMWEKgpbZxPe7uCSDqLnbgksdk5TTYBkWw8cUeK9u5cVRsXnXkQJS.jpeg) [source](https://pixabay.com/es/illustrations/ai-generado-hombre-mayor-viejo-8560904/) #### [What is your personal understanding of elders possessing wisdom?](#) I have said some of that earlier and in addition, elders do possess wisdom because their brains are more matured, they are capable of handling serious matters. Just like in the school environment, the owners of a school are mostly elders and they possess good leadership in their school environment, making quality decisions that always enable their school to progress. Elders are our leaders and majority of them are wise individuals. **I invite @okere-blessing, @saintprisca and @heriadi to participate in this contest.**
