McCob,
If your first sentence was true, that would make two of us :-)
Regarding your statement about Wisdom, "being wise enough..,"; yes that is tricky. Wisdom -or rather the untempered desire for it can certainly lead to a powerful vanity... E.g.,
A book by s.mahowald gives a detailed history regarding the lust for being the "keeper of the secrets", the wisest ones, the elite---in early jewish history-- that led to gross distortion or destruction of truth and the origins of secretsociety/occult tribes

I have learned that
Faith, hope, love are rather more sure ways to the heart of that which is ...just... ineffable! And the fruits of these humble pursuits include wisdom (perhaps) and many other good things as well.
You music man you.
