Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. Here’s the famous ending to Camus’ essay. And so, with the weight of the boulder forever bearing down on him, he could smile. He could find something new in every detail of his world, and within his own mind. But if he instead faced the absurdity of his situation head-on and chose to enjoy it, he could unlock happiness. If he watched the boulder roll and thought: “I want the life I had before, when I was a King,” that thought would make him miserable. Sisyphus would be miserable as long as he lamented the futility of his boulder-pushing. If you were in Sisyphus’ shoes, could you find a reason to live? From an existentialist perspective, Sisyphus is a perfect representation of human life. Sisyphus is different because he has no hope, and he knows that his task is futile. That’s what gets them through their struggles. They tell themselves that there is meaning to existence and life after death. Most people reject the absurdity of their existence. But it is tragic only at the rare moments when it becomes conscious. Where would his torture be, indeed, if at every step the hope of succeeding upheld him? The workman of today works everyday in his life at the same tasks, and his fate is no less absurd. If this myth is tragic, that is because its hero is conscious.
