Well John, the fact that we are all on the right side of the grass and looking horizontally instead of vertically means we are all being successful at that [dancing on the razor sharp line between the Ying and Yang] for the most part.

Trillions of living things are at the tip of a billion year continuous chain of DNA which has never been broken before their ancestors propagated the continuation.

It is hugely improbable that we should arrive right here, right now and the absurdly improbable only reached probability 1 because untold vast petatrillions of beings tried to succeed. Nearly all failed at some stage in the billion year history of life, which is not surprising. Only the truly miraculous escaped the eons-long filtering process. To succeed is like flipping a coin a billion times in a row and every single time it comes up heads. Having trillions of coins being flipped at any one time means it was understandable that somewhere a series of wins would get through, especially as the winning coins are each multiplying frantically, to replace the losing coins which were wiped out.

Dancing on the razor sharp line is what we do for a living. It's risky, but hiding in a bunker isn't always a good answer either. Anyway, what choice do we have?

But thanks for the compliment anyway.
