Just right now the sun is shining and the sky is blue, that's true. Tonight there won't be a blue sky and I'll see the stars, tonight that will be true. What's also true is that there is no sky and it's not blue, it's the sunlight reflecting and refracting off particles in a layer of atmosphere and the blue is all the colour that's left.

It's true that Tiger Woods is a golfer because he plays golf, it's also true that it's partially true that a golfer is not all he is. He is also a father, husband, friend, son.....

Some things are true, some things are true in context and some things are partially true given the amount of information.

It's partially true that Tiger Woods is a golfer because that's not all he is. At the same times as he's plaything golf or being a friend, he's also being a divine being. You don't stop being a divine being when you shut your computer down and go food shopping. When you see what is, you see what is true.
