Nope, I regard that as an emotional reaction - not a connection. I regard a reaction wholly diffferent from a connection.

I react if I am alone in the house and suddenly the door slams shut. That doesn't mean I have a connection with the door. I reacted to what happened, but not to the door - no connection: emotional or otherwise. An emotional reaction yes, but connection? No.

I'm unclear where you get the idea that some people consider themselves 'above emotions' (whatever that's meant to mean?)

You are correct abot leading horses to water.... You can't force someone to have the same opinion or views that you have. It would be a boring place if we all thought the same.
