Why are we here?

If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking,

If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

by Emily Dickinson

Let's say 95% certain. My personal mantra is 'May God grant me certitude and shield me from it.'

Because absolute certitude makes us smug and annoying and blocks the knowledge that there may be an answer that's righter than the one we have.
