Truth ... to which its own! Your truth might not be what I believed in! We all interpret things differently (even though we may be looking at the same thing/situation). That's also the whole trouble (the way we see things) ... that leads to misunderstanding. My favourite illustration is the number '6' - '6' from one side and you see a '9' from the other! Who's right, who's wrong? :-)

A proposition that correspond to reality.
But then, I think of the truth that is conveyed by a piece of art.
And I also think of truth is that, that becomes unhidden.
The truth that I am not, but the truth that I want to be.

Truth is relative and subjective.
Example. True: It cannot be day and night at the same time.
Now change your location to a solar orbit. You can observe day and night at the same time on the planet. Truth is relative to our position in space-time. Truth is subjective to the observer.

It depends on what you mean by truth. If you use it as a mere de-nominalizer then it is otiose but if you use it as a method of signifying its agreement with certain standards then it may make a difference.

Nothing. Not that I think there is no truth, it's just that this question is sort of absurd. If I say cat, what would you say?

PS - There is no more truth - it has officially been replaced by "truthiness"

"I'm happy"- even if the nature of the truth is bitter!
