We already talked about Sisyphus back in January of this year or earlier.
Did we not learn anything? I figure these two:
One: if you think you're more clever than Zeus, then your efforts are meaningless and futile.
Two: if your efforts are already meaningless and futile, then you'll be unmotivated and probably unhappy.
BTW, "Zeus" can be interpreted many ways: for me "Zeus" is Nature, Reality, Science...
Is there a way to solve the existentialist dillema in point two? If it's a meaningless life in a meaningless universe (as I've espoused), then how are you motivated and how do you get happy?
Is it all about meaning in the effort?
Is it all about being a "smiling" Sisyphus?
Oh well, that's all I've got
