Omaha Ciub addressed by
Washington
Living is an important res
ponsibility, but too many of us
are afraid to face the brutal
realities connected with it and
seek ways to evade them, Charles
Washington told members of the
Omaha Forerunners Club, Wed
nesday noon. He was the third
and final speaker on a series of
discussions on the theme “Suc
cessful Living” sponsored by the
club. He spoke on “Meeting the
Issues Involved”.
It is true that “Life is likened
to a gamble”, Washington stated.
“It is true that there are many
chances and uncertainties at
tached to it; but there are certain
things we can do to be sure we
don’t ‘Crop Out’ before we make
our point.”
“I have just learned, after liv
ing 23 years, that unless we face
life with sincere and square ap
proach, we can never make any
gain toward a happy and success
ful life,” he continued.
He said too many of us spend
time analyzing the lives of others
and fail to inspect the imper
fection of our own life. “We are
all guilty of this gross error,” he
asserted. “I’m going to start
spending that time to work out
a solution to my life.”
