empiricism vs racionalism,

I can't choose between this two because is too difficult to choose a side that is absolut. So I will explain both sides. I will choose rationalism because is trustable and you can be sure with it because reason never fails, but by the other side living just thinking reasonable have to be like hell and if you want to prove a scientific theory or things like big decisions is good o be racionalist but you dont have to prove eveything that happen in your life.
I will choose empiricism because sometimes people should live with their sences to live better, i f you create experiences with sence perseption you will get more from that and even if it sounds cursi sometimes is better to live with sensations.
So I think some philosophers want to show their philosopfies by living them absolutelly and extremely and they were closed to another opinions. For that is better to live with a balance of both is good to have sense perception and sometimes is good to trust in them, and also is good to reason about somethings to understand them better and never forget that you can always trust in reasoning.
