TastesBlue – I think you are forgetting the power of your inner life. See
http://dreamhawk.com/inner-life/inner-world/So we often forget that we are all dual creatures with not only a limited personality and body but also a core self that had infinite potential. See -
http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/what-we-need-to-remember-about-us-3/#DualBeing So in our inner world your dream makes sense. It is saying that all the efforts you have made in your life as a participating in the human race, efforts that cost you sweat and blood - and some tears too if I guess right – are all there in your clothes; to quote “They can depict the stance or attitudes we use to meet other people or special situations such as work or danger; protection, such as might be given by our feelings of reserve, shyness, anxiety or aggressiveness in fending off sexual or other advances. They can also indicate a period or phase of ones life when you wore those clothes, and so associate with the activities, problems, or things you were experiencing at that time. But also the triumphs and realisations you have achieved.”
Also in your inner world you constantly influence others - Other people’s clothes worn by dreamer: The social attitudes, responses and perhaps way of life we have adopted from others. They might indicate that you are either being influenced by that person, or you admire who they are and are changing.
So your wise advisor was telling you to be aware how you influence others through your example and life.
