Birthdays and Goodbyes: Steven Wilson's Reflections on Life and Loss

You didn't choose to be born, you're just conditioned to celebrate.
Birthdays are often a time for celebration, but what if they also prompt deeper reflections on life and loss? In this poignant episode of 'The Leaves of a Victim never more', Steven Wilson shares his birthday musings, weaving together thoughts on funerals, grief, and the essence of living. Starting with a reading from Theodore Roethke's 'Lost Son', Steven delves into how his experiences with death have shaped his views on society and self-worth in America.
He ponders the role of funerals, suggesting they serve more as a comfort for the living than a tribute to the deceased. With heartfelt anecdotes about his late grandmother and grandfather, Steven explores the idea that grief is intertwined with gratitude for the time spent with loved ones. He wraps up by wishing himself a happy birthday, underscoring the importance of celebrating life amidst the inevitable farewells.
This episode is a touching blend of personal reflection and universal themes, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating the complexities of life and loss.
