What I think Chaucer meant to say by naming his poem Truth, is representing it as part of our excistence, according to accept our life style and ways of living. When he refers to, "For greed entails hate and social climbing uncertainty", Chaucer tried to explain that people was not pleased with what they had and always wanting more. Nowadays, we could see this situation through our wants and how materialistic we have turned. Consumerism has became in a popular trend, but what's worst is that we are not just consuming material goods, but our own lives.
We have to be always grateful for what we have, acting with humility, because at the end there's someone who will judged us for eveything we have done. I think that's what he refered when he talks about religion.
After reading this poem, I could see that truth is essential in our lives. I deeply believe that we have to act according to what we think, being honest and sincere with the people around us. This makes real sense to my life.
