Simplified Meaning:

Wisdom helps us tell the difference between what is right and wrong. Imagine you have two friends. One friend always helps you with homework and is kind, while the other often lies and causes trouble. Wisdom is that inner voice that lets you see who is truly a good friend and who is not. When making decisions, having wisdom means thinking carefully about the consequences. For example, if someone offers you money to lie for them, wisdom helps you understand that lying can lead to bad things, like losing trust or feeling guilty. It guides you to make the choice that is good and honest. Applying this to life, using wisdom means taking time to think before you act. You check if your actions will hurt or help others. By listening to wisdom, you live in a way that is fair and kind, making better choices that benefit everyone involved.
