One of the stories that spoke to my heart was about their ancestors, that they bypassed the South Island and the North Island of New Zealand and went directly to Rēkohu from Polynesia. This is the reason why their language is different from ours, the people of the land in Aotearoa. As I was thinking about that, I was pleased, because it was one of the four corners of Polynesia that I hadn't visited. With the knowledge that not only are the Hawaiian people from the north part of our family, along with those of Rapa Nui in the East, but also those who are indigenous to the Chatham Islands. Because of that, when I arrived at those islands, it wasn't as if I was a stranger to the spirit or to the life-force, because I had felt that before in some of the islands I had visited in the Pacific. Therefore, I acknowledge those stories that have been carried down from the ancestors to today's generation.
