Sharing wisdom

Sharing wisdom is passing on a view and an understanding distilled by the years. Wisdom differs from knowledge; knowledge grasps facts, while wisdom includes knowing where and how to use those facts. As someone who has seen the pattern behind a situation, the mentor can show the mentee connections they have not yet noticed. This sharing is not a display of superiority but a gift. Wisdom is often not an answer but a question asked at the right moment.
