according to nietzsche, our definition of truth is nothing but our own attempts to allude its' pure essence in relation to human beings. we form a thought, a concept which we might perceive as truth but its' the kind of truth that only exist within the limited capacity of our boundaries. its already been designated and defined to us by the detrimenting effects of language. language - which is a metaphor of our concept and concept -which is our metaphor for truth. man invented language to convey his reason and to articulate his thoughts but how are we supposed to find "truth" if its been (presumably) granted to us by default to begin with? we develop ideas through subjective logic, through personal stance and we project these collective ideas as truth in accordance to how it applies to everything around us. but truth, pure truth, according to nietzsche, is truth without consequence. to seek truth is to detach it's relativity in accordance to the human condition.

logical eonugh for my human understanding, i suppose.
