Protective detail

Had a dream I was a part of a two man detail protecting a small child, a little girl of maybe 6 years old. It took place at night in an unfamiliar house. Inside the house was dark, we had the lights off so we weren't exposed. there was tension and anticipation for something.

I was in the kitchen which connected into the living room that ran along the front of the house. It felt like an older home. I heard movement outside the kitchen window which faced the side of the house. A gun shot rang out and a bullet pierced the window. The girl screamed and the front door bangs open and dark figures attack and down my partner. I fire my sidearm 3 shots into one figure and 2 shots into the second. I grab the girl by the hand and head out the back door...

I asked that because i have somehow 'seen' pecularities, going against all odds in your dreams, so that it would be a plausible explanation.

It has to do with my experience of seeing and the interpretation of thousands of dreams. I start from a standard model. While I can say something of every dream, I don't waste my time responding to every dream. If you look at my working method, you will notice that I always make a complete analysis, explain what strikes me in the analysis and eventually draw a conclusion. Since I keep it as brief as possible, it is then up to the dreamer to respond and ask questions. If you have answered my question truthfully, then the idea / theory that I had is wrong and I will leave it at that for now

I've had decades of dreams that would not fit in Harvey's theory, by the way, so don't feel challenged. :) In fact, we should always feel amazing that so many dreams refuse to fit into our "neat and tidy" boxes (sometimes they can be made to fit, but more often they just don't). They are so much more sophisticated and layered than that--we only catch fragments until our minds have been completely opened to more possibilities, and even then I suspect we consciously miss layers that are available.

Along that path, I've had plenty of dreams similar to yours that I consider *experience* dreams. Snippets of lives lived through others' eyes that expand my understanding/empathy and caring, and those sequences lead me step-by-step, dream-by-dream, closer to connecting to a grand experience (ie, growing my consciousness to be more inclusive of possibilities, and this, some might say, is enough of a motive/design of dreaming: to enlighten us, or rather stimulate us to evolve ourselves).

When I was studying for my novel, Dream Knights, I began to suspect and then get confirmation that there were distinct types of dream purposes that often mixed and matched in ways according to how aware the dreamer is, how ready they are. As I delved and analyzed and structured for the sake of my informative-entertainment blend, I only became more confident of this--and how narrow-minded it is to try and lump them all together. Dream "reasoning" can be as different as the stars in the sky, as diverse, and this should always lend a sense of wonder (and perhaps explorative excitement); otherwise, we are only limiting ourselves.
