How come when there is always a good thing out there, nobody seems to want it if it feels strange and unfamiliar? It always has to have someone to act as a leader to go out, before others will follow.

I really think that the person might sometimes have to be ourselves. The thing out there might just be what we need, but if because of a little unfamilarity we miss it by just ''that much''.
It really not fair to miss what is needed in your life for just stupid fears.
