No, I think it's different, but I'm not a professional writer. Are you one, or are you just dropping a cliche term and hope it means something?
> While some may truly be that way I haven't found many people at all that have such a deep connection to the things they do.
Because they kinda stick together and hang out in places like art schools. You seem inclined to believe that the whole world is exactly like your closest environment, only bigger.
You can become an airbnb call center agent after 2 weeks of training. You can become a professional violinist after 15-20 years of practising 2-8 hours every day, 7 days a week. See how there might be a different level of connection here? A figure skater's career path is NOTHING like that of a carpenter. These are NOT comparable.
> And if it is an integral part of someone then they wouldn't that easily just throw it out.
And they don't, usually! That's the whole point. But there is often a *lot* of pain and struggle before you find the right mindset and balance.
