Truth is both defined and discovered. It is "defined" in that it is a stable thing, it does not move. Something akin to a fact. A fact is a fact. A fact is provable in some evidentiary way, like the pictures of crowds on malls or of whether you have ever met someone. Truths of course can be discovered but you have to be looking for it and you have to admit when someone presents you with it. You can take "your journey of challenges through adversity" to find the truth however you cannot be presented with the evidence that establishes fact/truth and reject it. If you do, you are rejecting truth. The problem that has developed is that a substantial (not the majority) of persons have chosen, despite the fact that they have been shown the evidence and actually when they are given the evidence, to discount it and to present its members "non-evidence" that proves nothing. But this minority attempts to prove a reality using this non-evidence. It cannot be done. Moreover, it scoffs at the real truth and the real evidence and to make fun of those who are attempting to present of the actual facts and truth.
