What s most important here is that everyone has a choice.It’s been a wild ride as BTS released their Most Beautiful Moment in Life (HYYH) series over the course of the past two years. I m sure there are many others who would choose to walk away from Omelas and I m sure there are many others who would gladly stay. Try not to hate me because I care about my own happiness do not scorn me for my brutal honesty. I choose to “live happily ever after” in my Utopia and nothing can influence that decision. It is everyone s own choice whether or not to walk away from Omelas. Perhaps this is selfish on my part and perhaps there are many who would disagree with me, but I stand by my decision regardless. Nevertheless, my own satisfaction takes precedence in my life. Regret and guilt, I m sure, would comprise my thoughts. However, if this were to be so, if my tranquillity existed solely on this little child s sadness and dejectedness, I would sorrowfully have to turn the other cheek. Is it truly a perfect world if one must suffer at the hands of everyone else? A perfect world for everyone but this child? It doesn t seem quite fair, or even thinkable. I don t see how there could be a “perfect world” with consequences and limits to this bliss. If it were to be true Utopia for me there would be no child locked in a basement. I could not possibly sacrifice that for anything or anyone. How could I give this up for anything? It is my dream, my heaven on earth. My career will forever be rich and my home life everlastingly comfortable, and most importantly I know what the future holds. I know that life will always be pleasant and that I will always be happy. I have wealth and prosperity, a big house and a beautiful family. In my Utopia I am a notable musician, respected by adults, admired by children, envied by fellow singers. Le Guin s short story, “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas,” I have come to the conclusion that I would not be one to walk away. Caring as much as I do about my own future and rapture, I would sacrifice someone else s bliss in a moment.Īfter reading Ursula K. Once again, posed with the question, “would you sacrifice someone else s happiness for your own happiness?” I would have to reluctantly answer “yes.” Unfortunately, yes, I would sacrifice someone else s happiness for my own. I do want more than anything to do so, but I do not know what the future holds. I d like to know now whether or not I will make it as a musician. I detest not knowing exactly how I will be spending my eternity.
Who knows whether or not I will get that “big break” into the music business or if I will be working for minimum wage at a movie theatre for the rest of my life. I am terrified of the future I am afraid of the “real world.” There is nothing more frightening to me than that first step into reality, that first day after I graduate college. Nothing is ever certain, including my own future. However, that level of disbelief still exists. I especially believe this in my own case. Also, I believe that if you truly want something and work hard enough at it, anything is possible. I have little doubt that I can make it in this world on my own competency and talent. Therefore, I sing whenever possible and do my best to take part in any and every choral group, as well as take advantage of solo opportunities. I feel that this, for me, lies in singing, and my ability to perform. I want nothing more than to succeed in life, and I would like to do this with that which showcases and makes evident my ability and talent. I believe my biggest talent to be my voice, and therefore do everything possible to be active in that field of study. I am willing to work hard and struggle towards my goal, no matter how difficult the feat. I am willing to do whatever it takes to strive. I have always been a very career-oriented person and my future is what is most important to me. I care very much about my life as a whole and want it to flourish to great extent. My future encompasses the majority of my daily thoughts and actions and I would not sacrifice my chance at a decent posterity for anything, not even a child in need of my avail, no matter how great the need. Not a day goes by where I don t think about the future, hope to be successful, and scare at the thought of life after college. These are the aspects of my life that I care most about. Would you sacrifice the happiness of another for your own happiness? Would you turn your cheek to a child in need if it would renounce your own rapture and change your life completely? Unfortunate to the way I was brought up and to my usual standards of thinking, I would have to answer these questions with a saddened “yes.” I must admit that my happiness, my success, and my prosperity are most important to me.
