Wisdom is....
Intelligence grows out of a material existence which is illuminated by the presence of the cosmic mind. Wisdom comprises the consciousness of knowledge elevated to new levels of meaning and activated by the presence of the universe endowment of the spirit of wisdom.
Wisdom is...
The ability to communicate and share meanings that constitutes human culture and enables man, through social associations, to build civilizations. Knowledge and wisdom become cumulative because of mans ability to communicate these possessions to succeeding generations. And thereby arise the culture activities of the races: art, science, religion, and philosophy.
Reason, wisdom and faith are mans highest human attainment.
Reason introduces man to a world of facts, to things; wisdom introduces him to a world of truth.
When reason once recognizes right and wrong, it exhibits wisdom; when wisdom chooses between right and wrong, truth and error, it can demonstrate spirit leading.
Reason deals with factual knowledge; wisdom, with philosophy and Revelation.
Wisdom dictates that I do not over do it.
Hope you enjoyed my thesis on wisdom.
Peace..........

Difficult question.
Wisdom has the ability for broad spectrum thinking, applying one's intelligence and drawing logical conclusions. Wisdom also needs a certain amount of experience which age brings to truly have the ability to draw those logical conclusions.

Nowadays, wisdom to me means not being suckered by any scam artist, this is of its own a feat to be honored for.
