What happens if you lose your car? Do you search it in your closet, pocket , under the table and even in the back pocket of your son's jean? These are possible and you wont find your car in them but you search them knowing the fact that the is no ways you gonna find the car in them. So, why search them? What happens if you lose your wallet/purse? Do you run to the garage? NO but search your pockets, hand bag etc. Therefore it is vivid that anytime you lose something you wont even try to go far searching for it but you'll start in your pocket no matter how big/small it is. That's why the soccer player touches his head every time he misses with his foot.
