Wisdom is "about" something or more akin to the "action of being wise about something". It's not really a 'thing' by itself, just like "Love" isn't a 'thing' by itself. == As noun, it's ALMOST useless. Wisdom. It carries a sense with it. Something mysterious and deep. Something almost beyond comprehension. Woo. But as an action (the act of being wise) then it is useful. It's like love. "What is love?" people go nuts over that. Love really isn't anything per se. But there's the action-of-loving. A feeling you project outwards towards someone/something. That's tangible in a sense. But love as a noun? Standing all by itself? It might as well be a Greek statue of a God somewhere with properties and stories behind it but nothing tangibe beyond the granite making up the statue.
