Magical Cloak and Hats

Nancy very kindly brought in her collection of hats
And a beautiful handpainted silk velveteen cloak
For us to paint together

Oh my, how elegant she must have looked
When she was draped in this rich cloak to attend the Operas!

And she let me try it on!
I felt like I transformed into a Countess from The Middle Ages......
It lasted but for a moment! lol
As soon as I took it off
The magic was gone

Can we mentally put on a symbolic cloak everyday
That allows us to step into a different self?
A self that we aspire to be
Until it becomes a new norm of our being?
