Yes, but only at first glance. In reality, you are changed by the knowledge and insights of today, and tomorrow you will look at your answers and see yesterdays truth in a new way. The old truth will then take on a new meaning and in many important ways becomes a new truth that applies to the new day, ad infinitum.

TRUTH, this word is very subjective. It will change with the times in which it is used. Truth tomorrow will be different tomorrow.

Nothing is the truth. What was yesterday is the past. What is today is the now and adding them both together gives you tomorrow.

There are two kinds of truth.
"Killing is bad"-----This a universal truth that does not change
"Killing a man who is about to shoot three orphan children is good"-------This is a seemingly contradictory truth.
There are universal truths everywhere about everything that do not change for time, people, or place. But realistically, these truths MUST be adaptable for us to apply them. As Aristotle puts it, "There are many cases of particulars". Trying to take a universal truth and apply it to every situation is impractical, and as we live in a world of practice, it is also stupid.

Truth is relative to the perceptions I hold; therefore, as my perceptions shift, so does my interpretation of the "truth".
Truth is not static, it is not fixed with a single meaning to be discovered. What waits to be discovered is to discern what is really true of you, beyond the mind's conditioning.

No.
In 1963, it was not true that people could walk on the moon. In 1969, it became truth.
Truth is time sensitive.
