Through the intro, you may or may not have known
what The Myth of Sisyphus is about.
However, I will still explain again.
Sisyphus was the first king of Ephyra.
He was brutal king, yet clever
One time, Zeus disguised himself as an eagle
and abducted the nymph Aegina,
who is the daughter of the god of rivers, Asopus.
Sisyphus saw the direction in which
Zeus flew, carrying Aegina,
so he spilled it to Asopus.
In return, Asopus would have to create
a river running across the city.
When Zeus knew about it, he was infuriated,
so he gave command to Than(at)os to
arrest and fetter Sisyphus in hell.
Because Sisyphus was clever, he managed to
trick Thanatos and escape from hell.
But he couldn't just hide forever, could he?
So he told his wife that when he died later,
she would have to throw his corpse
down at the square.
When Sisyphus died the second time,
he came to the goddess of hell,
Persephone, and lamented that his wife
disrespected him
and did not bury him properly;
so he had to return to the human world
to punish his wife.
Persephone agreed to give Sisyphus
a second chance to return
on the condition that he would come back
right after finishing the punishment
Obviously, Sisyphus did not abide
After the second time of deceiving gods,
it is impossible for him to escape this time.
This time, Zeus caught Sisyphus,
and gave him a punishment,
that is he had to push a boulder uphill
However, everytime the boulder
approached the top, it would fall down again,
causing Sisyphus to restart his task
FOR ETERNITY.
When you first hear the story, 
your reaction would be like
"Ewww, such a horrible punishment." right?
However, there is one dude who said
"We must imagine Sisyphus happy."
That dude is Albert Camus.
/albert camus/
That is the last -sentence- in his book,
The Myth of Sisyphus (not counting appendix),
which i will be reviewing today.
So what's the idea here?
Why is Sisyphus happy?
I think the only thing to imagine Sisyphus
happy is to juxtapose with your own story
