- What does truth mean to you?
- What is your truth?
- Do you know what your truth is?
Here is my response in triolet form:
What is Truth?
One unerring mark of the love of truth is not entertaining any proposition with greater assurance than the proofs it is built upon will warrant.
~John Locke
“The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it.”
~Flannery O’Connor
What is truth?
~Pontius Pilate
I asked my neighbour, “What is truth?
“Is it the same for you and me?”
He answered me in words uncouth.
I asked my grandma, “What is truth?
She smiled and showed her single tooth.
“Truth is truth, do you not see?”
I asked the world, “What is truth?
“Is it the same for you and me?”
Cool. The part about Grandma's tooth reminded me of a lyric by old Christian rocker Larry Norman, "I searched all around the world to find a grain of truth. I looked into the mouth of love and found the wisdom tooth."
