I think there is an "I" when dreaming, although I would consider it a deperonalized experince. how we relate to objects in dreams tell us about ourselfs or at least identfy with who the person is? what I am trying to say is we dream according to who we are as individuals. When we are awake we deal in the realm of objects, so i can see where psychology would fit in.

Does it even matter to our higher power even if our life is different from others?
