Some think they have it, some have it but think they don't.
What would be the measure for wisdom?

Some people think with age comes wisdom along with it, and tend to act as though their actions and whatever they say are more logical and mature than those who are younger. These people often get too opinionated and rarely gives others a chance to share their views or opinions on any situation. In the event that they do allow other people's input, they often would belittle their point of view and thus ridicule them by making their way of thinking seem either childish or illogical.

The worst part of all this is that these situations are rarely 1 to 1 conversations, it is often in the company of people where the older person would ridicule the younger person when a opinion or perspective comes up which differs from the older person's. Hence the younger person feels in a way, shamed and "small", being humiliated in front of his/her peers. Truth be told, the "older" person does this for one single purpose, its undeniable unless you have another point of view, feel free to post it in the chat box, the "older" person does this to make him/herself feel better about themselves.

During these situations and you belittle someone in front of your peers and the other party is unable to do anything to you, you surely feel a sense of power and authority, a truly matured person would control that feeling and stop there, for not everyone is that smart, not everyone can understand, instead of belittling him/her and leaving him/her to feel shamed, the "older" party should in turn correct the person.

Wisdom does not come with age. If a 50 year old man who never leaves the house and stays at home all day, and one day speaks to you about life, would you take his word for it? He barely had a taste of the world beyond his home and the experiences that come with it. Is that considered wisdom? Wisdom can to anyone at almost any age, lets be real here, i'm not talking about toddlers or babies.

If a teenager goes through an experience which an older person only just experienced, the lessons learned are the same, the knowledge attained is the same. If the persons natural level of understanding is unable to learn from experience, then that person will never learn as his/her own ignorance prevents him/her so.

Its through experience wisdom and knowledge is gained, knowing the road and walking the road is different.

But if through experience you assume you are knowledgeable because you have experienced much, you are sorely mistake, it just means you learnt the wrong things and experienced the wrong things. If you were a gangster once, that experience, people who go through it might think they are terrifying and are fighters, that's the wrong kind of knowledge gained, if through gangsterism you learned to see the right way of life, that's a real lesson learned.

Age doesn't come with wisdom my friend and age doesn't give you power over anyone, if you continue you ways you will only meet people like yourself and will be forever stubborn and ignorant to your own mistakes as you are engulfed by your own arrogance.
