Joyce Nassar Huna Waharina is a survivor of her own past which was filled with abuse, violence, addictions, depression & trauma, anxiety and burnout. She was under the hells of life and was abandoned medically and by those around her. She lived in a whirlpool of inner self-destruction and constant sadness. Always looking to be loved, seen and valued for who she was, not how she was supposed to function or be molded. Somewhere along the way, she lost herself in all the diagnoses she had received, living out her own self-abandonment, resistance and depression. 14 years ago, at the age of 30, she was told that this state of hopelessness, pain and permanent inner darkness was chronic and that she had to learn to live with it. This statement lit a new fire in her. She made a decision to finally live. Without even knowing what real LIFE was, she began her journey. She began to believe in herself, found ways to heal herself and activate her own self-healing powers, changed her outlook on life and became healthy. Today she stands for hope, belief in oneself and never giving up.Her poems are a journey from 1993-2010, through her darkness, depressions and moments of hope. Let yourself be inspired by a journey in darkness that led more and more into the light.

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Cologne, language: English, abstract: This paper will examine the works of some Australian female colonial poets, who, in contrast to male authors, have critically examined their situation in their writings and in this way offered a realistic view on life in Australia at the time. To begin with, the culturally specific concepts of femininity and masculinity in literature are to be inspected and how the male myth is embodied in the bush legend. The essay examines the contemporary Australian literary production and analyses the role of women authors.Secondly, the function and role of poetry for the feminist movement in literature will be demonstrated. Although women¿s prose has received more attention than their poetry has, and prose writers were central to literary culture, I chose to focus on poetry, since it has been suggested that poetry tended to exhibit the clearest record of the feminist movement. Since many female writers turned to fiction, as poetry was considered men¿s territory, women poets had to struggle against male attitudes. The essay will research the circumstances of female productions, how they were reviewed by fellow writers and which obstacles women poets had encountered. Although journals do not relate directly to this topic, I feel motivated ¿ due to the fact that poetry was especially dependent on periodical publications ¿ to call attention especially to the significance of The Dawn, opposed to the Bulletin. Furthermore, the main aim of this paper is to illustrate the thematic range that was relevant to female poetry. The question of which themes and motifs had preoccupied their verse will be discussed. Main themes such as marriage, love, independence, loneliness, religion and the potential for future female influence will be illustrated in poems by authors such as Louisa Lawson, Ada Cambridge, Emma Anderson, Caroline Leakey, Mary Hannay Foott and Emily Manning.
