The Mere Mortal Standing Next To Him...from Seeing Julia


"He’s a Greek god, not entirely real, certainly privileged, and utterly fantastic. All I know is time spins on, and eternity doesn’t apply to me, the mere mortal, standing next to him. I think of Evan’s fine traits and Jake eclipses even my dead husband’s. And, I shouldn’t be having any of these thoughts, but it’s a reprieve, from the grief that’s invaded me for so many days, so I’ll take it, knowing I’ll have to contend with the guilt and shame that will come along soon enough. They’ll be by any second, now."
