I think wisdom doers come with winters. I think wisdom comes as time passes by because the more we get older the more we find out about new things and learn more. Even if its the small things that we learn we still grow wiser. Well at least a non stubborn person does. Look at yourself don’t you think you’ve gotten wiser as time passed by? Because no matter who you are I’m pretty sure you do. It’s just something humans do. This is why I think we get wiser as time goes by.

Wisdom is a quality many people get when they experience certain life situations,and something that comes with time and maturity. So wisdom is not measured by your age its measured by your mental aspect on life. For example, Anne Frank was a young girl who lived during World War II and she wrote a diary of what she thought about her experience in such a time. “The Diary of a Young Girl” quotes, “No one has ever become poor by giving”. This quote tells us that being selfish doesn’t get you anywhere or anything,but to always have a giving spirit and be nice to others because making people happy benefits your own happiness. It doesn’t take much for you to do a nice gesture for someone. Anne Frank has written many touching and wise saying that people live by today. But unfortunately people in her time didn’t have that positive view on life. Even though most of Anne’s life was hiding from her enemies she still managed to stay strong and influennce to others to do good. So Anne is a wise young lady who knew her life could end at any second but just looked forward to what the future could’ve brought her.

You can work on grammar mistakes so that the reader doesn’t get confused, and also try to use better transitions so it better fits the paragraph so it doesn't mislead the potential audience that will read this. I do agree with the concept of this paragraph and your stance. Over all, if you fix the errors, I think this would be an outstanding paragraph.

I like your definition of wisdom, but I think you should try make your stance on the matter clearer. I think you did a great job at relating your example to your opinion.

Wisdom is a quality of life that one hopes to gain when aging in life. You often hear people say they die with great wisdom, like Anne Frank, who was a wise and intelligent young girl. She learned so much having to grow up so fast and experience things that no child should ever have to go through which lead her to be such a prestige and wise individual. Anne had experienced the move from her hometown leaving her friends knowing the situations going on around her, knowing that she had an advantage over others being that she had the privilege to escape the risk of being taken by the Natzi’s while her friends were being caught and being killed. One does go through things that lead you to learn from mistakes and learn from situations that one brings themselves into that makes them grow much wiser as an individual.

The book “a diary of a young girl” was clearly about a diary that was created by a Jewish girl named Anne frank. Anne frank was born on July 12, 1929 in Frankfurt. At the age of four, Anne and her family had to move to the Netherlands because she lost her citizenship and t5he nazi’s were gaining on Germany, so they went into hiding in a secret annex that was behind a workshop. But on the day of their birthday, she received s diary, and with that diary she wrote down how life was in the secret annex, with included the van Pels and Fritz Pfeffer. On august 4, 1944, german police came and arrested Anne and her famil and to them to the German camps. But on the way to the camp, Anne got a disease named typhus, and died when she arrived to the place with her sister Margot. Luckily, a few years later, her father survived the war and went back, and found her diary. Soon he published her diary and named” a diary of an young girl” that was translated in 70 languages. Now, Anne frank has inspired many people with her story, that is a diary.

Wisdom does not come with age, it comes with experience. For instance, there are plenty of adults right now who are not wise enough to even know what they are doing and most probably can not change their views of what’s right and what’s wrong while the world keeps changing and there are as well some young yet wise teens. If someone has experienced certain situations, they usually get more experienced, wiser and are usually known as the ones who know how to deal with stuff the right way and know what the differences between the right and the wrong are. At the end of the day, age is just a number and it does not and should not determine how much wisdom someone has.

Wisdom is something we all strive to attain but something we seldom get. Wisdom, the wisdom we all dream of is only attained through your experiences. It is experience that is the defining factor in how much wisdom we possess. As can be seen in the case of Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl who gathered more wisdom in her short 14 years than most people gather their entire lives. Anne lived during the reign of the Nazis and had to endure so much at such a tender age. It was this hardship that gave Anne the wisdom she is now known for. It’s almost hard to believe Anne was only 13 years old when she wrote her book, when you read it. This mass wisdom is one of a kind and can only come from experience. Anne may not have lived that long but the wisdom had is everlasting.

Wisdom doesn’t come with age, because people that are young can be wise. For example, in the book The Diary of Anne Frank, a little girl who is hiding from the Nazis, Anne, is very wise for the way that she acts as well as the way that she was able to survive for such a long time in hiding along with her family. Anne wasn’t very old, but she was very wise in the way that she wrote a book at the age of 15 and wrote down all those experiences that she went through and wisdom comes with experience not age. She was also wise for the way that she knew exactly what to write and how to become an important and famous person in society by making her book fun for the readers. Wisdom doesn’t come with age, but with the experiences we go through in life.

Wisdom is a quality that we gain overtime from experiences throughout our life. Wisdom is developed as we overcome new challenges, molding us to see situations with a new perspective. Going through life’s daily obstacles helps us because when we overcome something, it shows one where their wisdom comes from. In the case of Anne Frank, a young 13 year old Jewish girl, her wisdom helped her survive the holocaust while she was hiding in fear of her life. Anne was a 13 year old girl who went into hiding during the holocast in which she stayed in a small annex for 2 years. Throughout Anne’s diary, her wisdom and maturity was shown through her writing because of the experience she endured at such a young age. In her writings her perspectives and way she viewed things on life changed, having her transition from a child to a young lady, showing that despite her age her wisdom was found because of her experiences.

We all make decisions based on our wisdom of wha the result might be. Wisdom is obtained from experience which is gained everyday. Older people tend to be wiser than those younger than them because they have made and seen decisions people made, analyzed the decisions based on the results, and thus know the best effect of each result. This is what makes people wiser in time. However, this doesn’t stop older people from making bad decisions. Even though we have wisdom, we sometimes refuse to use it or act to fast to think about wisdom. Who do you think will do Better observation, a fourteen year old boy who stays at home all day studying about pollution or a twelve year old boy who goes upside to the playground to study about pollution. The twelve year old will gain more from this because of the experience he gained upside

I think this is very well written but the end when you bring up the 14 year old and the 12 year old boys I didn’t get the point and would kindly suggest for you to elaborate on this point not only will this benefit you but it will benefit others who see this and they will most likely agree with your point.

Wisdom comes with age because its the only way to get mor wise. Even if ther are younger people that are more wise than other older people, it’s bocause of what they have experienced over their yers. The words of Oscar Wilde “Wisdom comes with winters” means that a person gets wiser each year, this dose not mean that you have to be old to be wise but that an older person is wiser than a younger one. For example,

Aging only makes our minds more mature, while experiences develop wisdom. Humans achieve wisdom by experiences and not by aging. For example, in school there would be a bully that causes trouble for students. You would wonder why they would do such things to ruin a student’s day. But in honesty, you probably end up assuming that he watches horrible things and learns from it. But reasons that may have caused the bully to trouble students could be that he has had traumatizing experiences with his family or even by being abused himself. Most people are not crude just by growing up, a crude person is created by the role model.

As time goes by, people realize that past experiences, life long knowledge, and decision making are effective in acknowledging one as wise. The interaction between Anne Frank and Edith Frank demonstrates astute wisdom because Edith attempts to direct Anne in the right direction due to her inexperience and immatureness. Since Anne Frank’s mother has gone through what Anne has, she is able to provide her with advice; showing her right from wrong. Not only that, she is able to influence Anne Frank’s decisions with the service of her experiences. Even though her mother may not have all the answers, her judgement comes a long way and is advantageous. It is known that knowledge is acquired over time. Therefore, it can be said that Anne’s mother is a mentor to her that reflect her wisely teachings upon her. Furthermore, wisdom is obtained throughout a lifetime.

People say that wisdom comes with age, and while I believe that is true, it is difficult to say that wisdom does not as well come with experiences. As we age we gain experiences, therefore, wisdom comes with experiences. In “The Diary of a Young Girl”, Anne Frank tells tales of her time spent in hiding during World War II. At the young age of fifteen, Anne had experienced more than most people her age had. Along with her experiences game wisdom. She had the knowledge that allowed her to survive in a time when all the odds were stacked against her, a time that she wasn’t meant to survive in. While Anne eventually lost her life during the war, it wasn’t due to her lack of knowledge of survival, it was due to illness. She had no way of escaping it. Anne’s age was insignificant to the amount of wisdom she gained due to her many experiences.

Wisdom comes with age because you go threw more things and also you see more things. The older you get the more you see. For instance the Dairy of a young girl or/and The Dairy of Anne Frank. The diary is about Anne Franks life during the Holocaust. Anne Frank was born in Germany, she moved to the Netherlands in 1930 when the Nazis took over. Her family was forced into hiding after Margot was forced to go to a labor camp which actually turned out to be a concentration camp. Her family were being helped by some of the family’s friends which helped them hide in the secret attic they spent 761 days in hiding before they got caught. They got caught in 1944 which Anne and her sister Margot were sent to a concentration camp. In 1945 both Anne and Margot died because of starvation. A year later the war ended and the father was the only one to survive he went back to the attic to find Anne’s diary a year later of finding it he published the diary. If we never had the diary then we might not have known what was happening outside of the concentration camp.

Wisdom is the quality of having experiences, knowledge, and good judgement. Wisdom is believed to come with age, but many people, younger than others, have more wisdom than one could ever have in a whole lifetime solely because of what they have experienced. Oscar Wilde said “ with age comes wisdom but sometimes age comes alone”. My interpretation of this quote is that yes wisdom can come with age, but majority of the time some people will age without any wisdom due to the lack of experiences they have had. For example, Anne Frank, Anne Frank had a lot of wisdom due to all that she went through as a child, like having to hide in order to survive. Many people do not have as much wisdom as Anne Frank did because they haven’t experienced anything like she did as a child. So, in my opinion wisdom doesn’t come with age, but it comes with experiences.

Wisdom doesn’t come with age but with experience. Anne Frank was a young Jewish girl who had to be in hiding due to the Nazis taking over Germany. When she was thirteen when she got her first diary and during that time period before she died at the age of fifteen, she had her own thoughts and gain new experiences based on what she witness. “Whoever doesn’t know it must learn and find by experience that ‘a quiet conscience makes one strong!’” This quote by her shows one that learns, doesn’t matter what age, can gain a strong experience. And by spending time with her mother who gave her advice and other people around, she at young age gained knowledge that the people around her had. Even with the ongoing holocaust events, she gets to experience at a young age what it’s like to “suffer.” Anne didn’t need to be old to be wise; with what she learns and experience at a young age, she is already wise.

Despite the common belief that wisdom comes with age, sometimes age comes alone. Although wisdom can come with age, wisdom ultimately derives from the experiences an individual has faced. An example of this would be the story behind the book, ‘The Diary of a Young Girl’, by Anne Frank. In this book you follow Anne into her day to day life of being a Jew in hiding during WW2. Although Anne’s diary begins just as Anne hits adolescence, it documents her quick growth into a strong young woman through her experiences in the annex. Because of Anne’s circumstances, peers, and overall situation, she had to mature rather quickly in order to be able to make it through her situation with a stable mind. Throughout the diary, you see Anne grow up through the way and the language she used when she wrote, evidenced by Anne saying, “Now that I’m rereading my diary after a year and a half, I’m surprised at my childish innocence. Deep down I know I could never be that innocent again, however much I’d like to be.” In conclusion, not all old people are wise, and not all young people are clueless. People mature and grow at different speeds based not their own journeys.

One reason why I think that wisdom does not come with young age is that some people may have experienced something from a much younger age and might be wiser than some that is older. For example, in the book, The Diary of a Young Girl, Anne Frank wasn’t only fifteen when she died while she was being transported to a concentration camp and in her diary she filled it with her own experiences while she was hiding from the Nazi’s and she was still very young. Enough though she was only fifteen years of age she experienced everything that she wrote in her diary she did not get it with age. She knew what was going on and was able to shared that in her diary and share the wisdom of how it was like hiding from the Nazi’s. The wisdom she had did not come from age but from her real life experiences.

Decisions we have made and seen, make up how wise we are. With that said, time does make you wiser because you see decisions other people have made, and you make choices for yourself. Watching peers make life choices helps with one's wisdom, because it prepares you for whenever you are facing the same problems or choices you can take a different path , or maybe, depending on your interest, follow that persons path. On the other hand, making choices for yourself and learning from your own life, also helps you accumulate knowledge. For example, in “The Diary of a Young Girl”, Edith Frank’s age and wisdom help her lead Anne Frank through the tough times they are in. Edith helps Anne in decision making by giving her advice from her own life experience. In conclusion, wisdom is gained throughout the years and experiences of one's life.

How would you explain the concept of wisdom? It could be a collection of knowledge, an accumulation of memories from previous events, or maybe a deep understanding of an event that one had experienced before. The time it takes to gain the ability of perspective, empathy, etc. can range between any time. Therefore, wisdom is usually acquired after experiencing and interpreting a meaningful and impactful event in a relatively short amount of time.

As time goes by, people realize that past experiences, life long knowledge, and decision making all help one become wiser. For example,The interaction between Anne Frank and Edith Frank demonstrates how astute wisdom comes with age because Edith attempts to direct Anne in the right direction due to her inexperience and immatureness. When Anne had damaged the coat that belonged to Peters mom, Edith made her apologize to her because she did not want there to any distaste between them. Since Anne Frank’s mother has gone through what Anne has, she is able to provide her with advice; showing her right from wrong. Not only that, she is able to influence Anne Frank’s decisions with her wisdom that came from experience. Even though her mother may not have all the answers. If Anne listens to her mother, she can learn from her mother’s wisdom. It is commonly known that knowledge is acquired over time. Therefore, it can be said that Anne’s mother is a mentor to Anne since she has accumulated wisdom throughout her life time.

How do you expect to be wiser whenever life gives nothing to experience from? The public will usually assume that being old makes one instantly wise. But there’s numerous of literary examples that prove them wrong. “The Diary of a Young Girl,” by Anne Frank, demonstrates how ones wisdom comes from experience. Being only 13 years old Anne Frank wrote her personal diary which later on became a book translated to 70 languages with 30 million copies sold. Now, why would any adult buy a diary written by a 13 year old? Because the wisdom Anne Frank possessed from her experience was more than others twice her age. Anne Frank wrote, “I must

Does wisdom come with age? No it doesn’t, because wisdom is something people develop as time passes. Wisdom is having knowledge and having the quality of being wise. The reason why wisdom develops during time is because you create a perspective of how you view and experience life.

My uneducated assumption about higher education was that it’s a lot more expensive than it seems. It was very surprising because there’s a lot more things included than just taking classes such as the expensive books, dorms, and basic needs. What encouraged me most is that after those couple years, painful years of hard work pay off because you’ll eventually have the “American Dream” life with the perfect job of your choice and a happy family when you’re ready with the money you make from that job. I plan to go with A&M and study to be either a veterinarian or cosmetologist and the best way for me to prepare for college is to advance some college classes this school year by taking dual and save up money for it

Insight, knowledge and judgement are three factors that contribute to the definition of wisdom, three elements that are enhanced through time. While it is important to understand the difference between these three, their similarities are that each one improves with time. Insight consists of being able to navigate relationships successfully. Relationships with people improve the more people you know, and the more people you know leads to improved relationships. In other words, insight is enhanced. Similarly, knowledge works in a parallel sense. The more time goes by, the more capacity to learn new subjects your brain has. That is the way human beings function, the more time the more people will know. Additionally, through judgement, good sense is a quality required and accumulated through experience. In conclusion, wisdom is made up of components that are usually enhanced throughout time, in some cases they don’t, but in most, they should.
