Wisdom is knowledge, insight, and judgment combined. Holy wisdom also holds the spiritual gifts to assist you. One day we will give an account for all that we do. It takes wisdom to live a life where you can face God with no regret.
Wisdom is a feminine word, but so it sin (foolishness). The feminine word stands for adulterous. The point is that we are meant to use wisdom to avoid foolishness. If we follow Jesus and listen to the Holy Spirit's guidance, then we can live a stable life. If we give into the seduction of sin, then we give way to destruction in our lives. Sin leads to confusion and chaos.
God's wisdom is eternal. It has a past, present, and future for every person. Christians are called to endure which can be very hard at times. Foolishness is much easier, but the consequences are take too much. Sin is selfish. It will lead to self-pity, indulgence, and pride. It is alluring, but it is all false advertising.
Work for what is good in your life and the world. Decide and follow through in trusting God in all things. That requires ignoring and rejecting the lies of Jesus. It is our moments in life that are the deciding factors to follow Jesus or be a fool. It takes practice, but life is so much simpler to depend on God for your strength, find rest, and to be your best self.
