There is such a thing as objective truth, but we have to remove all the subjective factors, and to know a great deal about everything surrounding the truth to get to it. That is today's epiphany.
I rather like it - but like so many of these things it will probably turn out to be untrue. I like it because I have always felt that there were real true things - not in the sense of Platonic Ideals - but actual facts which were True... opinions and interpretations could fluctuate, but there will always be a truth.
I am not talking about religious truth - but truth about people's behaviour, motivations. Even if one's own opinions fluctuate, if one could remove all the interpretative material, somewhere underneath it all there would be a truth about why one did what one did.
