The men were paddling, there were women on the canoe as well. The women had seen some type of island or so. In minutes they reached to the island.
“ What is this place”, one of the men asked.
“ I am not sure, but let's explore”, one of the men chiefs replied back.
The men then left to explore the new land but the women were left stranded on the shore.
It was nearly night, the men still hadn't came back.
Because it was night the women started to worry.
They saw the canoe slowly sliding off the shore to the water.
In seconds the canoe started to waft away.
There was a women in the tribe named Wairaka.
She did not want the women and man to still be left, lost in this new piece of land, So Wairaka decided to swim to the water and catch the canoe. But due to strict rules of the tribe, the other woman thought she was insane because the women were not aloud to even touch the paddles.
Wairaka reached the canoe she sat inside and paddled back to shore.
The women were in amazement.
“ Do you have any respect”, one of the elder women of the tribe said
“ I do, but what if we lost our canoe”, Wairaka replied.
The group of men had arrived back.
“ We should put these paddling rules down because what if we lost our canoe”, addressed the chief of the tribe.
