Language is a human enterprise, so without us, the discussion of "truth" is impossible.
What is more, all language is dependent on its context. So in the evolutionary development of human beings and our language, the definition of truth has also changed.
So, in brief, no.

No.
We 'see' and 'understand' the world through the filter of our senses, our memories and emotions. None of these things can give us a 'true' view of the world.
So while there are 'facts' such as the scientific definition of a calorie, that heavy things fall 'down' or that I like chocolate, the world (and our impressions of it) are in constant flux. So since nothing we perceive is unchanging there can be no 'original' (philosophical) truth.
Or alternatively, Yes. All is change. Knowledge is not wisdom. Life just is. Resistance is futile.
Well, that's my opinion.

No. Each person has a different view of the truth.

What is Truth? Truth is subjective, and not necessarily the same to you as it is to me, or anyone else for that matter.

The Sun is the most important object in the heavens, we depend on it for life itself.
