The Truth

   The past, present, and future have an enormous affect on the truth, and can lead us to the truth. The past can teach you things, the present can determine what your truth may be, and the future can motivate your truth.
   Being that the past has already happened, it can teach you things as you look back on what has been done. Once new things are learned there is a better possibly of the truth being uncovered. For example, when you are having a conversation with someone, you may not be able to connect the dots at the one, but later you my recognize many important aspects of things that were said, and the truth can be revealed. Also, the past can not be undone so the things in the past are set in stone, so once something is done ... there is no going back and that IS your truth.
   The present can lead us to the truth, because everything we do has the ability to be our truth. Everything you do in this moment is important to what the truth may be. Also the present can reveal the truth because the present is a combination of prior knowledge and very previous knowledge acquired as well.
   The future can reveal your truth, because it is what your life will be. For Oedipus, being that the killer of the king is said to soon be murdered, that can reveal that Oedipus will be killed.
