Credit

Asking for credit often touches the strain of borrowing against the future — leaning on trust you're not certain you can repay. The dream may ask where you're worrying beneath an outward brightness, whom you're extending trust to, and whether the faith you place in others might eventually be turned against you.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
