Ok, let's review. Niki, your father wanted you to come to Kabul to 'find something out', perhaps to 'tell' you something. So you go to Kabul and get a 'zip-lock bag', as in 'hermetically sealed' - a secret, and in the bag is a piece of paper together with an insect symbol and something very personal - your credit card, that piece of plastic that generally means you can have what you want.
It's really helpful to examine a dream for what it is, not for what it's not. To say that the paper was meaningless, your rational mind wants to ignore it as being merely the means by which the roach was placed in the bag. That would explain it away and not within, which is what dreams are about, within. The dream says you are intended to learn something and dreams are full and complete to themselves - everything is there if you can only penetrate it. So, your clues are a bag, an insect, a piece of paper all of which personally relate to you and no one else. All this points to that something you were to "find out".
But another thing about dreams, sometimes it's best to just let them simmer in our unconscious.
Anyway, that's the way I work with dreams. To each his/her own.
