Thanks TCJ for the tip of the the "tip of the hat." There's "hat trick" for 3 goals in a hockey game. "Passing the hat" to collect moola. Well, ya need a hat to pass.
Another BIG winsight this morning: the missing hat came while I was feeling like "I'm shucked!" around my Sisyphean duties to save my home within my condo. Like a "deer in the headlights" —I fell stalled and stuck "facing" this bleak and lonely and hard working future.
All exaggerated, of course, but when I think of my inner selves, they are each a pure exaggeration. The parts—by collaborating or leading, or giving way—express a more blended, balanced, and seemingly well-adjuster performance that I present to others.
When I asked Ai it suggested the lost hat was a style of sacrifice. I think a closer fit is it simply slipped out my object permanence mental "space" as this condo boulder fully "landed" in my gut, vision, and plans. I mean, really, you only get 5 ± 1 chunks of mental processing capacity; and the condo boulder took up 9.
Gee, from this view, I got off light only losing a great hat I was falling in love with that cost about $25. As far as I know, I'm trying not to look for anything else.
This has generated a fresh search on "deer in the headlights." There are some good mind-body tools I found for dealing with the stress and anticipated stress (and blame, and mistakes-apology cycles, etc.)
Even found a NY Times article on couples therapy that has strong resonance with another boulder in my life: my relationship.
