We regard their statements to be true, and regard them as persons to be true persons of integrity---because the expectations which they generate in us are fulfilled. We see them as bearing significant responsibility for leading us to correctly expect what we see come to be true in our experience. The nature of TRUTH is wrapped up in the nature of reliability and expectations; and so is wrapped up in how we are led to expect whatever it is that we come to expect. Thus the nature of TRUTH is wrapped up in the relationships within which we participate as followers in being led to expect whatever it is we come to expect, and in discovering when our expectations were (or were not) reliable expectations. We may be misled by statements which may be shown to be objectively true statements; especially if we want to be misled and want to expect what may not reasonably be expected. We may then blame the person who made the true statements---for our false expectations. Truth, honesty, reliability, and expectations are reflexive realities. To regard them as purely objective realities is misleading, leading to unreliable expectations. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
