In popular use, the phrase "That's what <X> is about" often refers to the emotional enjoyment of doing X or being involved with X: For example, I did a search for "that's what basketball is about": "He has so much emotion and swagger and confidence. He's talking and there's emotion. I love him for that. That's special. That's what basketball is about. That's what big moments are about." - http://www.news-gazette.com/sports/illini-sports/mens-basketball/2017-12-06/jordan-rules-with-illini.html http://www.news-gazette.com/sports/illini-sports/mens-basket... “She loves LeBron.
