The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.

Reading this story tonight was and eye opener. I could not believe this town would kill a child for their own happiness. At the start of the story the town seemed like a cute perfect paradise like place and so as the story went on it socked me. As i was reading the rest I really thought about how selfish and self centered people can be in the world, this includes me. This story kind of gave me a reality check to think about the fact that I could be very selfish in certain situations and this is defiantly not a good thing.
