Last summer I had a dream, and it’s been staying with me ever since. I tried my best to recreate its vision in this video.

I was at a dock watching the flow of water. As I was staring at the wave, the deep blue water began changing to this bright purple-ish color, and the light refraction became pixelated like a low-res VHS video. 

At the time I was into lucid dreaming (LD) intensely and managed to be aware in my dreams often by practicing reality checks. By noticing the water changing, I immediately became lucid. Instead of flying away, strike convo with a random dream entity, or explore the world I’m in… I decided to do something different this time. I wanted to see my Dad again. Someone on the LD forum shared that they can summon a person they’ve known that’s no longer in this world, and I wanted to give it a shot. I called for him once, silence.I tried again second time, mom showed up, she's still here, so I knew it wasn't really her — just something wearing her face... and I kept calling. The final time, Dad finally showed up. The way he appeared was simply pop up into the scene like a jump cut video. We sat across from each other and we talked. At the same time, I was watching us from a third person view like I was watching footage of two actors. Our discussion was forgotten but all that  left was a feeling of peace. The dream stopped there. 

It has been over 7 years since he’s gone to sell salt - đi bán muối.

Whenever I see the sea, I always think of him. There’s always a connection between him and the sea. The stories he used to tell me about his adventurous days when he was secretly a boat ‘captain’ navigating refugees to their new life. The days where he never quite talked about detailed enough for a young girl like me to comprehend. Even when he had the chance to go far away and begin again, he chose to come back to his family in the homeland. Mom resented him for it — if he had left, maybe we could've had a better life. Maybe. But now starting my life again in a foreign land and being able to watch and experience first hand how immigrants/refugees at my parent’s age struggle, I could somehow understand his decision back then. And I have to admit I am grateful for what we have now , even though we went through a turbulent time where he was drowning in alcoholism, leaving behind a void that can never be filled .. We used to visit Vũng Tàu as a weekend getaway when I was younger — where lots of good memories were created. The sea there was not the best but it was all I know of back then. It’s where he taught me how to ride the bicycle because the street is quieter than the bustling city we lived in. We used to ride our bicycles together on the bumpy narrow roads in between the water field. He was right by my side while I’m trying my best to keep balance, and my inner thighs were so bruised afterward when we finally made it back. I questioned myself why it was so difficult, but now it has become a moment I could never forget. During one of our dinners while we’re enjoying his delicious homemade seafood by the shore, he told me he always loves the sea and would prefer it over the highland (Đà Lạt, which mom loves). 

I had another encounter with him in one of my dreams a few months back and this time he was giving me a tour of the new neighborhood he’s living in. We talked like old friends and I could feel he was genuinely happy. He showed me every corner, went to every concert venue and he made me greet everyone there like he’s the big fish. The dream was so vivid that after waking up, it felt like I was inside the movie Coco.

I still see him in my dreams from time to time. But something has shifted since that water dream. I began to ask myself if he’s physically here, and the dreams usually ended when the realization hit. Or, there are dreams about me getting out from school and I was looking for him at his usual waiting spot, he never showed up and I had to walk home alone or someone else would pick me up instead. There was this dream that all of those elements combine and I can still remember the visuals vividly: School’s out again, and it was pitch dark outside. I tried to look for him as he’s nowhere to be found. The school entrance was facing a sea port directly. I looked out to the sea and spotted a glowy mass that kept getting closer and closer until it arrived at the port right in front of me. It was a parade of massive seahorses and they were floating in the air, emitting this glowy green light. I was enchanted watching them marching through me.
