Something related to/comes from our wisdom? I know the meaning of `wisdom`. Also know the meaning of `thought`. While we want to say that something needs us to think a lot about it, we use `thoughtful`. So how about wisdom? Which word should we use about something that is coming from/related to wisdom? Does "Intellectual" has the complete meaning? Is there any other word with better meaning?

WISDOM: Is the ability to discern or judge what is true, right, or lasting; insight. Other terms: Common sense; good judgement. It is also the sum of knowledge gathered from the passing of the years.

If something exhibits "thoughts" is called "thoughtful", then something that exhibits "wisdom" is called "wise". BTW: We should not automatically assume that intellectuals have superior mental capacity for all forms of thinking. Although intellectuals are invariably intelligent, in some cases, they may lack wisdom, common sense, practicality, social awareness, and other important attributes.
