"David"          by Adrienne Nater

"I found out later that I was referred to, by many of my families, as the nice lady, well intentioned, but a clueless, insufferable do-gooder who thought that she could change everything with words, I had to adjust, realize that I had no experience at living their lives; being in the trenches; not one who had ever manned the oars. David changed all that."

 Death, Dying, Greif and Mourning:

Death, Dying, Grief and Mourning
 a Collection & Chronology of
     Death in Western Literature

"During the five thousand years of known literary expression, save for several hundred years of silence, authors have achieved all manner of technique in the connecting of death and death’s sphere of significance...."

"We all desire to find meaning, the sense of dying and death. Fighting, fearing death is of no value in the scheme of living. Literary consideration of death is a challenging concept that each writer approaches according to his own set of cultural beliefs, experiences, observations, and imagination..."
 

 

 
             
             
 

Adrienne Nater

Adrienne Nater was born in Los Angeles, California to a mother who immigrated from Belgium and a father who was first generation of a Russian immigrant family. She was educated in the public schools system from Kindergarten through graduate studies in the university (Cal State University Northridge).

Shortly after high school, she set out on her own to pursue her own way in life and to free herself from the conventional expectations and constraints of her family. Her driving ambition was to become a teacher and on her path to that end, she became an avid learner. To sustain herself she worked in a variety of jobs from pottery factory to airplane assembly.

Once she achieved her coveted teacher’s license she sought every chance to continue to learn and sought every available experience as an educator. Throughout the years she taught in public and private schools she also put some of her considerable energy into other work. She tried her hand at elective politics, established a farm, worked as a Real Estate Broker and IRS tax agent. Her bottomless interest in new things led her to a wide range of passions: flying, horse showing, surfing, scuba diving, photography, bird training, writing and researching topics that caught her interest. When she retired from classroom teaching she turned to tutoring.

Her intention in life is to coax growth, productivity and beauty from people, animals, plants and from herself.

One Day

 

One day we will be I

One without the other.

You will be I.

Or I will be I.

No longer we.

Yet, always we.

But not.
