Looking with One's Brain (A Funny Admission)

This is something I do, that it seems some others do as well. However, today I admit this funny thing.

     As one of my best friends puts it: "you are the most unobservant observant person I have ever met!"

     No arguments, here. 😅

      I have this tendency when I can't find something for a while, to immediately see it right in front of me as soon as I ask my mom if she has seen it.

     We joke that it was like a superpower. She sometimes hasn't even answered and she has already given me reason to thank her for her help!

     I realize this comes from the tendency to look with my brain instead of with my eyes. When I am concerned I can't find something, I have this silly tendency to think that I can find it if I "think harder" about it.

      No, thinking about to more does not help me find it, because so, so often it's right in front of me and I can't see it, and/or it's in the very first place I already checked likely multiple times 😅.But I don't see it right there until I have released what pressure making me spin around, simply by going to my mom even if she hasn't even heard my question clearly yet.
