Wisdom

Wisdom is the ability to have good judgment based on knowledge. Knowledge is the information, skills, and facts gained by someone through life experience or education. Understanding is the ability to decide. Understanding is knowledge put into action. 
If knowledge is power, and wisdom is your choice to use that power, then understanding would be executing your choice to use that power.
Knowledge, wisdom, and understanding are all noble qualities to have and all humans should seek to possess them.

As he read through the names, he discovered his great grandparents, at the age of 91, were marched 1,600 miles (2,600 km) during the plight."
