Ursula Le Guin's story, “The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas” tells a intrguing story of Yin and Yang. The town of Omelas is is so full of happiness, seeming like nothing is wrong, but hidden in a basement is the town's balance. The town's balance is a small child that must take the burden of suffereing so that the entire town may be happy. This piece shows that no matter how perfect something may look, there is always a little despair in all the happiness.
