Humans love being told something about themselves, whether that meaning can be quantified or not.  One thing most of us seek is a direction in our lives, a road map, a destination, a purpose.  Astrology, fortune telling, tarot card reading, therapy, even organized religion are all but little directional indicators on the GPS of life.  Pure entertainment or fantasy to some, a science and philosophy to others.  Just cause the sign on the freeway says your exit is coming up doesn't mean it actually is.  You have to trust that the person who posted that sign knew what they were doing in the first place.  Ultimately, anything you --believe-- is the truth.  Because - and to use a really tired cliche - truth is in the eye of the beholder.

Truth is all that everything is, because truth has no boundaries.  Thats why they say, truth is in the eye of the beholder.   But if you can learn truth, nothing is everything, everything is something, and something is nothing.  Everything is everything.  That's why its truth, there is nothing else.

Of course, if you haven't realized the 'truth about truth', this concept may be foreign to you, so I understand your confusion.
