Dream Interpretation

Well, I can think of one particularly huge life change that will probably come sooner rather than later (depending on how you define "sooner" or "later"), and you know what it is. I'm not regarding this as a portent, or anything, because I know the change will come.

My hope/plan has always been that if I were ever robbed, I could hand over the cash from my other wallet but manage to keep safe all those cards that it's so difficult to replace. Last night I dreamed I lost that wallet. Then I found the wallet, but the cards were all missing from the plastic insert with the sleeves that hold the cards.

Oh, I would wake from that dream feeling so frustrated.

Today I woke up with a different interpretation of your dream. Imagine that your two wallets represent two different identities for you. The cash wallet represents the conventional identity that you present to the world. It is public and expendable. The other wallet represents your true, valued, and hidden identity. You fear that your authentic identity will be stolen or lost.

Have you ever been robbed in those 30 years and, if so, did your plan work? Also, I was wondering if you ever had to juggle the two wallets when completing a transaction?

I have not, but living as I do in the very center of a major metropolitan area, it still remains a possibility.
Maybe it depends on how you're defining transaction. In making a purchase, no, I haven't had to juggle wallets because if I'm paying cash, I don't need to access the credit card wallet, and if I'm paying with a credit card, then I don't need the cash wallet.
On the other hand, if I'm withdrawing cash from an ATM, then I do need to access both wallets, the card wallet for the ATM card and the cash wallet to put the cash in. Incidentally, I don't use an "outdoor" ATM, only an "indoor" machine inside my own bank.
Edit to Add: On local TV news this evening, I learned that last evening, someone was attacked four blocks from my home, and a second person was attacked a mere three blocks from my home.

What were the nature of the attacks?
