Joanna Eliza | Soul & Earth

The seasons are changing

We are evolving

Shifting

Like a river constantly flowing

So is she

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I have to remind her

Slow down

Moments pass by unnoticed

Secrets kept by the earth

Longing to be shared

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

She must flow with the current cascading through her soul.

Meandering through nature.

Running with falls.

Bathing in pools.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Not worrying about where other rivers flow

How fast

Or how slow

No two rivers run the same.

Some rivers join &

Some disperse

But all hold importance in the universe.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

She will grow

And she will change

But the love she has

Flowing through her veins

Will stay forever one and the same.

Some words I wrote reflecting on this season and who I am as an artist. I think imposter syndrome can seep in at any point and it’s so important to remind ourselves not to try to flow to anyone else’s current. To be ourselves. To love ourselves. To prioritise looking after ourselves and to find what feeds our souls. To never stop searching for the beauty in any given moment. To enjoy this life we’re living. To create art from the heart.
