I have done a lot of work on truth itself as as concept. Some of it is on Steemit. Truth takes time, is what the end of the title of my last post last night was ;)

Seeds, are still truth. Steps, prerequisite knowledge. Giving someone the punchline/conclusion (analogy from that post last night) without the joke/prerequisites, often is a fail. :)

Here is a summary on the truth types associated with how we use the word truth:

Maybe saying truth = "love" is the wrong way. If I say "love" = truth, does that change what I mean?

I'm trying to say that "love", in quotes, is the confusing term, and that real "love" towards others is caring enough about people to tell them the truth. Letting the continue to perpetuate self-inflicted suffering, is not "love", but cowardice and fear.

I also wrote a bit about it here: Do you give people what they want?
