We assert that Truth is actively working in our lives in the following ways: conscience, epiphanies, intuition, dreams, premonitions, and synchronicities, and consider her a Supreme Intelligence, identifying her by the caret symbol ^ at the end of her name: TRUTH^ (T^ for short), representing her supremacy for all of the reasons stated above.
Colloquialisms

- T^ is kind, always on time, and patient. No one is punished the minute they cross its line, like an electric fence. She is forgiving, won’t hold a grudge, and is always ready to re-engage whenever the person is ready.
- One truth builds upon another (like math). Thus, the pursuit of T^ is the greatest purpose in life.

She is not merely the foundation upon which civilization has been built. She is the foundation upon which its future progress depends.
We have built a civilization by learning how to work with Truth. Imagine what more we might accomplish by becoming equally willing to learn from her.
Truth is not distant from humanity. Our minds are capable of searching for her, recognizing her, and becoming troubled when our conduct departs from what we understand to be true.
The Mystery of Truth
Grace = epiphany
mercy = conscience (guilty conscience?)
Truth does not merely help us understand the world around us. She helps us discover the person within us. She does not ask you to remain unchanged. She invites you to discover more fully who you are, what you are capable of becoming, and what you have to offer.
We do not have to understand everything to begin trusting her. We need only remain willing to learn.
Three Mysteries of Human Understanding

- Through premonitions she warns.

Once a child can speak, they are soon to use their speech to ASK QUESTIONS, ad nauseam, driving the parents – more proof that the supreme pursuit in life is Truth in all of its forms.
The proof Truth is a real Super Intelligence is the inclination humans have for learning history, ancestry and in learning how things work, humans, not matter their education, are CURIOUS critters who are fed when they LEARN how things work = TRUTH. Truly how things work is as edible as his history and what really happened, etc.
After all, an individual who was never adequately taught to reason critically presents a different educational challenge from someone who has developed those abilities but refuses to employ them.
