Ten years ago, I was cleaning at Te Herenga Waka, Victoria University of Wellington. I worked with some of the hardest-working people I know. Some of them are here today: Rebecca, Awak, and Emma. All I did was clean, clean, clean, day and night. I didn't have a life. I didn't meet people. I wasn't active in the community. I didn't have the time to think or even dream.
