I had a dream where I was back in kindergarten as an adult. All the other students were children. In the dream this particular state required everyone to complete kindergarten and I had not (in the dream). Hence, I decided to volunteer and complete the program even though I have plenty of college education. The teacher was accepting and I wasn't going to ruin the experience for the children. At lunch I asked if I could get something to eat and went to cafeteria for a more adult meal. Part of me wanted to tell the person in the cafeteria about my advanced education, not sure if out of ego, or to help explain away any confusion or both. I then woke up. Thanks for any thoughts

Bob,
Two possibilities I see in the dream and both could apply but would be related {all dreams have more than one message}.

Kindergarten is learning something new for the first time. What you are learning or need to learn is something new about yourself {emotionally}. It could very well be something from childhood {all the other students-aspects about yourself- were children}. There is likely something about childhood experiences/influences that you need to complete {learn and understand}. It would be about childhood nourishment that has affected your adult life {foundations from childhood that formed your ego/psyche as an adult}. Despite your advanced education {something that is real?} there are elementary aspects from childhood that remain unresolved {thus causing emotional conflicts}.

The second possibility
There is something new in your adult life that you need to learn more about so you can complete some aspect to do with your life as an adult. It may be job related, relationships, etc. You are accepting of this need but lack the proper information to be well informed on the topic. There is some confusion on your part and it has to do with ego related issues {see first possibility}. There is a need for expression {part of me wanted to tell the person about advanced education}.

Look at both and determine which fits best. Normally a dream will address two issues with the same images but one of the issues will be the prime topic of the dream.
