For absolutely no reason, Sisyphus rolls this rock up the hill, only to watch it roll back down, again and again. In this, Camus draws a connection between the tiresome and futile fate of Sisyphus and the human experience. However, Camus wrote, “One must imagine Sisyphus happy.” With this, Camus makes the hopeful yet reasonable assertion that even in the ordinary, repetitive, absurd, and futile experiences of our life, we can and should still find worthy experience and happiness.
