Is There Any Fish For Me?

I am at the edge of this lake. I cast my line and wait. Look to the left of me then to the right, and I see people getting their fish. The fish always seem to go to these people, but never to me. I pull my line in, and look at theirs. I try what they do but never seems to work. Some fish just pass me by, not taking the bait, and everyone else is so happy with their one fish. I know that there is more fishes in the sea, but it just feels like there is no more for me, or no fish wants me, I take my line in and just say to myself, just one more try, there may be a fish for me.
