The set of all rules that defines the time/space realm in which we are forced to exist and any realm beyond it may be referred to as being the Absolute Truth.
But, on the other hand, a person can be satisfied fully if he had the chance to discover just the logical coherent answers of all important questions that are related to his personal being; also life in general.
Obviously, what he may know/get would be always just a subset of what we called the Absolute Truth. But, to him in the least, this subset could be, practically speaking, considered as his relative perfect knowledge. It is 'relative' to him and it is perfect since there is no more important questions for him to answer. Naturally, his relative knoweldge doesn't have to be exactly similar to anyone's else.
My point is: If most people on earth find hard to grasp 'Relativity' in modern physics, I wonder what could be the case of presenting Relativity (always relative to the observer) when we talk about knowledge.
