Not convinced...

"... there is an actual reality, or certainty, that exists..."

Not if we truly adopt Emily Dickenson's philosophy; if you subscribe to her beleifs, even our concept of "reality" is in the brain. I interpret that to mean that "reality" is not actually real, despite what our brains tell us--but then again, I don't know if I am completely willing to accept the idea that "everything is in the brain." It's frightening to think that we could be swimming in a see of nothingness and that our brains construct every fabric of our lives.
