Connection

"The path of least resistance is a comfortable road.  But you won't see any unicorns."

I recently attended a concert in which a world renowned artist performed all four of Chopin's Scherzi.  In the fourth Scherzo, when the music turns dark and a lone voice sings in C# minor,  I was no longer sitting on the balcony in the auditorium.  For as long as the voice sang, nothing else in the world seemed to matter - it was just me, the performer, and the lone voice singing in C# minor that connected us together.  And that sort of personal connection cannot be established by following the path of least resistance.
