Erich Fromm

“Every man’s goal in life is to give birth to himself.” –Erich Fromm Hopes turn into dreams Dreams into ambitious schemes Steps are taken, paths are chosen Time marches on unfrozen To be successful is a goal shared by many Few are able to succeed In this game we call life Nothing’s ever as it seems The path you thought you could take Has become a mangled, tangled Maze of confusion Steps become measured, cautious, even The schemes Fail to accomplish their once hoped dreams
