So before you begin to want the life of your favourite MCM and WCW, ask yourself if you are ready to pay the price to get where they are?
John Obidi will always say that every path has its pleasures and its price.
This is a quote by the Philosopher Socrates: “Before you wish for the pleasures, make sure you are willing to pay the price.”
Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it.
Make sure you are not asking for pleasures whose price can cost you everything.
