Not many really love to talk about ‘wisdom‘. It’s ‘unmeasurable’ in any way – in size or in weight. And it can’t be seen.
But we love to talk about and compare ‘smartness‘ and ‘cleverness‘. Both can be ‘measured’.
How many marks did you score in the exam?
How many ‘A’ do you have?
How many musical instruments do you play?
How many languages can you speak?
How many degrees, MBA, do you have?
This list goes on…
Most of them can be shown on ‘papers’.
We can use them to show off.

Can ‘smartness’ make us happy? Can ‘cleverness’ make us happy? Someone ever said that, “Human beings don’t know what can actually make us happy. We have tried ‘being rich’ and we have tried ‘being poor’… both can’t work.” Maybe, ‘wisdom’ can?
