I think the reason we're motivated to seek new things at certain times, or to be receptive to a new thing when we become aware of it, is that it fills a hole in our lives; solves a problem that perhaps we didn't even know we had, because we couldn't imagine a better way ourselves. In that way, the new thing IS familiar (maybe I should say it resonates), because it makes an instant connection to part of us and is quickly integrated into our minds and selves.
