Truth?? What is it and Where is it??

Truth. What is it and how the heck do we find it! I have no idea is it in what we are taught here the Church? Is it in myself? Is it in my teachers or friends? Truth is so hard to find.  How does what Plato's saying about Truth relate to me... Well i personally have in the last few year had a really hard time with loving God and knowing that I am fully into my faith. When my dad got sick it was like my life was over and all the sad things that had happened before that just built up and I grew this hate for God and his so called truth. I couldn't understand how a man , my father, could have been so bad or done some thing that had been so wrong to get such a serious Sickness. Like the prisoners i was facing the wall and could turn around. chained my my own feelings and actions. I could see the light of my theology teachers and others trying to get me to turn back to the light and to my path a a christian. I am working on being that man that goes to the light and then comes back to give the message to others!
