Answer:
living life with a purpose
Step-by-step explanation:
Emily Dickinson in the poem "If I can stop one heart from breaking" presents her thought of having a purpose in the life. She discloses her thoughts that she would love to assist people in her life so that she may keep herself busy and occupied. Her help to other people may help her in turn by not keeping herself in 'vain'. She wants to bring some positive impact in the world through her actions and thought and this would help her in nit being 'in vain'.
