Could you, perhaps, define the truth that you're seeking? What exactly do you want from "truth," and how exactly does it change things if you find it?

To me, "truth" is just what you percieve to be reality. I don't have a drive to seek any sort of higher truth, because truth is, to me, simply my veiw of the world. So, I simply decide not to worry about it, and take life as it is. Perhaps that's an overly easygoing way to think about things, but I'm down with just relaxing. I guess I'm just that kind of guy.

On a side note, short stories that I've written (which are VERY few and far between), rather than being sadly single themed, are sadly random, nearly to the point of incoherency. I wonder if that's a reflection on our veiws of truth?
