Whew, hard to say. A few years ago, I would have answered with a resounding yes. For me, there was true and untrue, or right and wrong. I've become more cautious, less absolute. I quite like the following definition:

How does it look for you?

Reading your answer, I don't have the impression that your opinion on truth has changed. It seems to me that you have just expanded your perspective to include the truth-finding process, which you recognise can be subjective, but you still see truth/reality as objective. I share this opinion too.
