Yesterday I wore a pair of flats to my fiance’s family’s Hannukah party. While walking out the door, I said to him, “Oh no, I have foot hair!” He said, “So what?” I was like, “Yeah, so what? What am I thinking about that?”

Then I was thinking about the circumstance of it. I was like, “What even is hair? How can I break it down into the most basic thing?” So I googled what hair is.

Unintentional Model:
C: I looked down and saw protein filaments growing from follicles in my foot dermis
T: I should have shaved my feet
F: self-conscious
A: imagine people at the party looking at my feet and feeling self-conscious and embarrassed. Think about running into the house and shaving my feet. Hide my feet.
R: ?? I believe there’s something wrong with hair on feet?

Intentional Model
C: I looked down and saw protein filaments growing from follicles in my foot dermis
T: I will use this as an opportunity to see what comes up in my brain at the party
F: empowered?
A: leave. I don’t even think about my feet while at the party
R: ?? R’s are hard

What else am I not seeing here?
