The song combined with the image hits really hard. You can feel that terrible feeling of the painful realization, that what you're doing is all for nothing. A never ending massacre... just like the point of the phrase.
Sisyphys was punished by zeus. He gave him a meaningless never ending task, yet Sisyphus outsmarted zeus once again by finding purpose and fullfillment in what in the eyes of a inmortal god is; torture. Just like him you can outsmart your own rock by putting in one foot after the other and pushing it as far as it can reach, because if one imagines Sisyphus happy, thats all it takes to defeat the universe itself :3

"we build our life on the hope for tomorrow, yet tomorrow brings us closer to death and is the ultimate enemy; people live their lives as if they were not aware of the certainty of death. Once stripped of its common romanticism, the world is a foreign, strange and inhuman place; true knowledge is impossible and rationality and science cannot explain the world: their stories ultimately end in meaningless abstractions, in metaphors. This is the absurd condition and "from the moment absurdity is recognized, it becomes a passion, the most harrowing of all." -- Albert Camus
Nope - the whole point of camus's philosophy is that the monotnous task of pushing the boulder up the mountain is the thing thats making sisyphus happy. Without it he has no purpose or drive so in fact it should be argued that - if the boulder erodes sisyphus would be filled with grief
stay strong, all feelings are temporary, it is part of life to feel sad, and part of life to feel happy. but no matter what puts you down, you’re still alive, and as long as you have the will to keep going nothing can stop you from getting back up. i wish you the best of luck in your struggle.

I love how psychologically deep everything about this meme is, even this perfectly looped song represents that never ending task of doing something so pointless that you can't even stop doing it yourself. Truly, one must imagine Sisyphus happy
This meme came about in a very odd time in my life. This could be pretty long so bear with me if you care to. I am in my 3rd year of university and have been slowly coming to the realization that I will be living the same bleak day out for the rest of my life, it ruined me for a time. Every day I drew further and further into a depressive and nihilistic state of thought. When this meme came about, it at first only furthered these thoughts of being a helpless victim of the world and it’s uncaring nature to the lives of humans and how truly ephemeral and pointless we are. But the more I looked and dug into the history of the phrase “one must imagine Sisyphus happy” the more I realized, this meme became symbolic of the exact opposite. It took a turn and felt much more hopeful. It helped me understand my own meaning of life and that is that life has no meaning but what we make of it. As pointless as we are when paired up to the concept of infinity, we still have life, we still have a consciousness. We still have to option to live our lives in manners that are meaningful to ourselves. Live for yourself and no one else, do what makes you happy. Because in the end, when it’s lights out for the final time. Would you rather think of how pointless you were? Or would you rather think of all the good times you had, all the friend you made, your legacy? Life is finding what makes you, for a lack of better words, yourself. One must imagine Sisyphus as happy as he has a goal, a directive, and he will follow it until the end of eternity. We all have a little bit of Sisyphus in us. Just remember that if you live pointlessly then you will in fact be pointless in your own eyes.
@@Fireball_og try your best to remember that every day being similar is not necessarily a bad thing. That’s why you have to make the most out of every day, be productive, be positive. It truly is all related back to your mindset
True! You are literally in my exact same situation. It's the pointlessness that can either harm you or defend you. You can use it as a defense mechanism or a weapon against yourself. I am choosing the former. But this might loop back. Oh well, one must imagine Sisyphus happy.
Technically speaking, Greek gods do die at some point, they are not eternal, as was proven with Zeus' father Chronos. Sisyphus was never killed (if I remember correctly), thus he can keep rolling that boulder over the graves of those that put him in his eternal anguish.
@@thinkandgame3627 Cronus never died. He was cut up, yes. But he'd be still very much alive in Tartarus. The titans, like the greek gods, are very much immortal. There's a difference between being Eternal and Immortal Take God, for example. He is Eternal. Always has existed, always will. And thus is also immortal. But the greek gods, while they're immortal are not eternal, as within their own mythology, they have a starting point before which they did not exist. This goes for the titans as well. The only being in Greek mythology I suppose you could say is "eternal" is Chaos, the Primordial from which ALL things spawned in that mythology
Ngl this is absolutely true😭 My fallout is literally stitched together, hot wired and hacked just so it can run like 30-40 different mod’s together (Xbox 1 user btw)
this meme explains humanity perfectly. we always develop, make ourselves comfortable, build cities and monuments and then destroy it all through war only to build it up again, and the cycle repeats over and over again
I had a relationship this summer with a girl that kept bringing me down, first I had to never talk to any of my friends again because she would've get jealous, then she made me buy her a lot of expensive things from my own life savings, then she insulted me a lot, then finally breaking up with me because "I'm not loyal" while she also cheated on me. This song fits perfectly. edit: my friends forgave me
Sending best wishes to Sisyphus on his journey of pushing the boulder to the top of the mountain. May your determination and perseverance lead you to success. Stay resilient and keep pushing forward. Good luck, Sisyphus!
Me when I was younger would never comprehend or relate to things like this, but now I’m starting to. Our lives are just an endless loop of meaningless. And even if it concludes to having little pieces of joy, I still feel like my life is truly missing something.

@@shadowyi3264 That depends if you are religious or not. To many, they seek religion to find a meaning in their suffering, thus leading to happiness. But to many modern day people who go out of their way to reject God, they need some way to overcome that meaningless void that comes with the rejection.
You know school is kinda like Sisyphus since once you fail that one thing it all goes down for you and you just wanna give up, this is basically the entirety of school, college, and jobs etc.
Sometimes you just want to get away from everything, go to the mountains, find the steepest and rocky. Find a boulder that is 2 times larger than you and roll it to this incredible melody
yes,this made me feel as if every word ive ever spoken was just a waste i almost kms until i found this on my way. i did some digging and found out he/sisyphus pushes that bolder forever he suffer more than i did so i stop went home and listened to this thinking about all the times i made some one feel some way
Everyone's using this song to express their depressive thoughts. Meanwhile I'm listening to this as my game downloads extremely slow, laughing my ass off.
Chronicling my experience while listening to this video on loop bc why not and I'm bored. 0 minutes in: starting my homework, hits different 3 minutes in: honestly kinda soothing, i might fall asleep lmao 8 minutes in: its felt alot longer than 8 minutes, the song is starting to turn into background noise 17 minutes in: almost fell asleep, its just so soothing (almost being 10 at night might help) 24 minutes in: i hate the chain and quotient rule 32 minutes in: almost done with the got dang chain rule, really fits well with the music 37 minutes in: scrolling through the comments, im starting to see a pattern here; everyone going through hardships, failing and trying again, over and over. They pretty consistently say something to the effect of "literally me". sure, it might feel that way, but atleast it wont be endless, thats one thing to look forward too, youll eventually get done with it, with help or not. 40 minutes in: i realize i may have come off as a smartass, i didnt mean it like that, just an observation (again dosent help thats my default state when im tired, which i am) 46 minutes in: thought i heard the music start to fade out, obviously didnt. i think im starting to lose it a bit lol 48 minutes in: with nothing else to occupy my time ive really been starting to drift off. i almost want to open another video to wake me up but that feels like cheating somehow. i guess ill do all the stuff i do before bed and drift off to it. if this is my last entry then you can guess what happened, but if not then you know that too.
today i went for a walk up a mountain and found a small rock on the floor and put it in the palm of my hand, i then proceeded to walk up the mountain that was very steep, when i got to the top i held the rock in both hands and looked around me at the beautiful view and played this song while i sat at the top of the mountain i felt so much accomplishment just by carrying that small rock up the mountain
this song is how it feels playing through a match of free-for-all in cod, repeating getting killed by campers. spawn, die, respawn, die, over and over until your body forces you to leave the match. despite leaving being what you wanted, you can't help but feel you've suffered a worse fate than defeat. surrender.
"The time where you are the strongest may not be at the peak of your life. It could be where your are at the bottom. Life gives you troubles so you can build yourself up and become stronger. That, that is where you are the best. When you feel like everyone's pouncing down on you; where you feel like your are a failure; where you feel like that life is worthless; life gives you the opportunity to build yourself up. Life gives you problems in life to prepare you for harder problems later in life. Just staying at the top forever, feeling like you are perfect and unstoppable, the smallest of problems could bring you down so easily. That's why you need to be in the trough of life at some point. Just improving yourself, increasing your confidence, humility, physical and mental strength; it's what makes you better than yourself before. It's what makes you feel happy, accomplished, confident in life. It what makes you the strongest in life. Because life won't always be so easy all the time. You got to be ready for the challenges ahead." -me while in the shower and while typing this
My favorite quote is one must imagine sisyphus happy one must imagine someone doing the task and accepting it might not accomplish and you know it but you still find joy in it
“Leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain. One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night-filled mountain, in itself, forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.”
alot of people have been making a meme about this but personally i think its terrifying, being forced to push a boulder up a rocky mountain over and over again for eternity, not being able to die or anything it’s horrible if you think about it
think deep into it though, if you’re given one direction one thing to do, only one thing for eternity, you may think it would be awful at first, but if it’s all you can do, you may find yourself doing it anyway. it seems like an awful fate but if pushing a boulder up a mountain is the only thing you’ve ever known for as long as you can remember, it seems fulfilling to make those small steps towards the top of the mountain, even though you may subconsciously know you’ll never get there. you celebrate the small victories and continue to push the boulder anyway because what else can you do? it is the same as life, we continue to live, knowing we will never reach our true meaning, but we are happy to live here and now.
Somebody once said "The insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different result"... Maybe if Sisyphus changed his point of view and found another way to finish his task he would get a "different result". If only one could imagine that...
and also this makes alot of sense because as a animator it's really hard to animate and this is what's it's like when you animated and haven't slept for 7 days then forgot to save and shutdown your computer and your work is now gone.
This song represents quite a lot. All though this may sound like a joke (kinda is and is also cringy) it captures something. A feeling of despair but a glimmer of hope. Just maybe you might make it, “one must image sisyphus happy” could also mean a lot of things. Never ending work that never stops coming. The struggle of loosing all your progress. But you need to continue. One must imagine them happy. One must imagine the person happy. One must belive that they are happy. Although the struggle they face is really quite a lot.
I relisten to this song, like it is a eternity. Always pushing the rock to the top of the mountain (listen to full video) and in the end, feel the feeling of returning all it back. But also feeling that I listened to all of it, did all the way up to be able to see how beatiful things can be. Knowing I need to start again, is one of the feelings of life, to start again, put new goals.
If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can also take place in joy. This word is not too much. Again I fancy Sisyphus returning toward his rock, and [122] the sorrow was in the beginning. When the images of earth cling too tightly to memory, when the call of happiness becomes too insistent, it happens that melancholy arises in man's heart: this is the rock's victory, this is the rock itself. The boundless grief is too heavy to bear. These are our nights of Gethsemane. But crushing truths perish from being acknowledged. Thus, Œdipus at the outset obeys fate without knowing it. But from the moment he knows, his tragedy begins. Yet at the same moment, blind and desperate, he realizes that the only bond linking him to the world is the cool hand of a girl. Then a tremendous remark rings out: "Despite so many ordeals, my advanced age and the nobility of my soul make me conclude that all is well." Sophocles' Œdipus, like Dostoevsky's Kirilov, thus gives the recipe for the absurd victory. Ancient wisdom confirms modern heroism. One does not discover the absurd without being tempted to write a manual of happiness. "What! by such narrow ways-? " There is but one world, however. Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable. It would be a mistake to say that happiness necessarily springs from the absurd discovery. It happens as well that the felling of the absurd springs from happiness. "I conclude that all is well," says Œdipus, and that remark is sacred. It echoes in the wild and limited universe of man. It teaches that all is not, has not been, exhausted. It drives out of this world a god who had come into it with dissatisfaction and a preference for futile suffering. It makes of fate a human matter, which must be settled among men. [123]All Sisyphus' silent joy is contained therein. His fate belongs to him. His rock is a thing Likewise, the absurd man, when he contemplates his torment, silences all the idols. In the universe suddenly restored to its silence, the myriad wondering little voices of the earth rise up. Unconscious, secret calls, invitations from all the faces, they are the necessary reverse and price of victory. There is no sun without shadow, and it is essential to know the night. The absurd man says yes and his efforts will henceforth be unceasing. If there is a personal fate, there is no higher destiny, or at least there is, but one which he concludes is inevitable and despicable. For the rest, he knows himself to be the master of his days. At that subtle moment when man glances backward over his life, Sisyphus returning toward his rock, in that slight pivoting he contemplates that series of unrelated actions which become his fate, created by him, combined under his memory's eye and soon sealed by his death. Thus, convinced of the wholly human origin of all that is human, a blind man eager to see who knows that the night has no end, he is still on the go. The rock is still rolling. I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy - albert camus 1955
"You go to school to leave it. Only to go to middle school. 3 years there then you're in high school. You expect to leave after that but... you have decades of your life on a job. You never truly escape work, only get through it."
I had a relationship that lasted 2 years, and i still think bout her sometimes. But what i keep getting back in my mind is all of those sentences that she told once, and one of them all that i remember now, is one that goes like "I dont like super buffed guys really, i just like when they have abs".Since then every time i have abs workout i think about that. But now that she is gone from my life, i only feel the feeling this song gives, just painful realization that no matter how hard i workout for those abs, i cant have her. And i just end up pushing my self, saying to my self "This isn't enough". And that applies every time i workout, pushing my self, cuz deep down ik im doing it cuz i dont wanna feel weak, but even tho i can get stronger, ik that in the end ill never have her, or anyone like her, and i wont get the happiness i got back in the day. With body dysmorphia, insecurities, being "too buffed", i know that everything that i do, is meaning less. thank to that im atleast getting closer to my main focus. "stop being weak" moral of the history, use the pain as the perfect energy. Stay Safe.
This sorrow of a broken heart will always haunt you, i know from experience. Always telling you like your not good enough, that you will never deserve love not matter what you do. I don't khow if it will help you, but if she was so picky about guys based on appearance, that means she was a shitty person and that you deserve someone better then her. However that nasty mark she left you will always be with you. Its important that you don't burry it, but take care of it. That part of you is hurt and if left unchecked will lead you to a path of self-destruction and rage. Tldr: some people will hurt you, to make themselves fell better, and the demons that spawn from there betrail are not your enemies to be silenced, but hurt souls that you need to assure that everything is going to ok Hope this helps 🥲🤝🥲
Remember that being strong doesn't mean not being weak. True strength of character is also to embrace your weaknesses as true parts of yourself, and work around them.
@@konradklukowski1009 liking men with abs but disliking buff men (which i guess meant bodybuilders that destroy their body with anabolics) doesn't mean she was a shitty person
@@konradklukowski1009 She is not a shitty person, it was just a comment on the kind of physic she likes to see. I was more skinny then what i am now in that moment so she was far from being peaky. But i get your point, thanks for the comment.
You keep gaining strength,motivation and endurance all the time,all your life until one day you wont feel weight on your shoulders and be free from negative feelings in you and then in the end you will finally be happy from yourself.
The song combined with the image hits really hard. You can feel that terrible feeling of the painful realization, that what you're doing is all for nothing. A never ending massacre... just like the point of the phrase.
But if one imagines Sisyphus happy, then it is all but that. Sisyphus teaches us punishment is merely a way of looking at something.

True! You are literally in my exact same situation. It's the pointlessness that can either harm you or defend you. You can use it as a defense mechanism or a weapon against yourself. I am choosing the former. But this might loop back. Oh well, one must imagine Sisyphus happy.
one must imagine sisyphus smiling. He alone has surpassed gods in their own game.
And gods think "Why don't mortals pray to us anymore?"
Technically speaking, Greek gods do die at some point, they are not eternal, as was proven with Zeus' father Chronos. Sisyphus was never killed (if I remember correctly), thus he can keep rolling that boulder over the graves of those that put him in his eternal anguish.
Wouldn't that just be a shallow facade of coping?
You will own nothing and you will be happy.
@@ThePostmenTribute well yeah. it doesn't take much to be happy after all.
@@thinkandgame3627 Cronus never died. He was cut up, yes. But he'd be still very much alive in Tartarus. The titans, like the greek gods, are very much immortal. There's a difference between being Eternal and Immortal
Take God, for example. He is Eternal. Always has existed, always will. And thus is also immortal.
But the greek gods, while they're immortal are not eternal, as within their own mythology, they have a starting point before which they did not exist. This goes for the titans as well. The only being in Greek mythology I suppose you could say is "eternal" is Chaos, the Primordial from which ALL things spawned in that mythology

Yes
True
the undying stubborness of humanity will never perish, fighting for a outcome that is determined. afterall, one must imagine sisyphus happy.

no way ! a meme can be the expresion of some aspect of reality ????
this meme explains humanity perfectly. we always develop, make ourselves comfortable, build cities and monuments and then destroy it all through war only to build it up again, and the cycle repeats over and over again
and after all it will all end

I had a relationship this summer with a girl that kept bringing me down, first I had to never talk to any of my friends again because she would've get jealous, then she made me buy her a lot of expensive things from my own life savings, then she insulted me a lot, then finally breaking up with me because "I'm not loyal" while she also cheated on me. This song fits perfectly.
edit: my friends forgave me
She's for the streets man
you deserve better anyway
Tough luck man, you deserve better
You suck so bad
The theme song for life.
Sending best wishes to Sisyphus on his journey of pushing the boulder to the top of the mountain. May your determination and perseverance lead you to success. Stay resilient and keep pushing forward. Good luck, Sisyphus!

@@zuscaji Yeah, he must get bored or something
I believe in him.
Me when I was younger would never comprehend or relate to things like this, but now I’m starting to. Our lives are just an endless loop of meaningless. And even if it concludes to having little pieces of joy, I still feel like my life is truly missing something.
Happiness isn't a missing piece, its a temporary mindset that anyone can achieve if they find value in the meaninglessness

@@shadowyi3264 That depends if you are religious or not. To many, they seek religion to find a meaning in their suffering, thus leading to happiness. But to many modern day people who go out of their way to reject God, they need some way to overcome that meaningless void that comes with the rejection.
@@reigun8494 then what is that way?
Perfect loop to draw and erase the same line to. One must imagine the artist happy
Listening this song in loop is like pushing a circle shaped rock into a never ending mountain.
You know school is kinda like Sisyphus since once you fail that one thing it all goes down for you and you just wanna give up, this is basically the entirety of school, college, and jobs etc.
Why are you right.
You are correct, unfortunately I collapsed under the weight. Do Better than me.
No it not you don't need school to make mony

Just like a snowball effect, it all goes downhill
Sometimes you just want to get away from everything, go to the mountains, find the steepest and rocky. Find a boulder that is 2 times larger than you and roll it to this incredible melody
This is how my relationship is going right now. I can’t take it anymore.

This song made me realise how many times, I just did things for nothing. How many times I wasted my time, to be in the end displeased and unsatisfied.
yes,this made me feel as if every word ive ever spoken was just a waste i almost kms until i found this on my way. i did some digging and found out he/sisyphus pushes that bolder forever he suffer more than i did so i stop went home and listened to this thinking about all the times i made some one feel some way
Everyone's using this song to express their depressive thoughts. Meanwhile I'm listening to this as my game downloads extremely slow, laughing my ass off.
F hope you made it
if this isnt played at my funeral i m going to open my coffin change the music to this and then enter the coffin again
then someone changes the music, and you have to change it again, and again, and again...

The kind of video that you can listen to 24/7 without getting bored.
Chronicling my experience while listening to this video on loop bc why not and I'm bored.
0 minutes in: starting my homework, hits different
3 minutes in: honestly kinda soothing, i might fall asleep lmao
8 minutes in: its felt alot longer than 8 minutes, the song is starting to turn into background noise
17 minutes in: almost fell asleep, its just so soothing (almost being 10 at night might help)
24 minutes in: i hate the chain and quotient rule
32 minutes in: almost done with the got dang chain rule, really fits well with the music
37 minutes in: scrolling through the comments, im starting to see a pattern here; everyone going through hardships, failing and trying again, over and over. They pretty consistently say something to the effect of "literally me". sure, it might feel that way, but atleast it wont be endless, thats one thing to look forward too, youll eventually get done with it, with help or not.
40 minutes in: i realize i may have come off as a smartass, i didnt mean it like that, just an observation (again dosent help thats my default state when im tired, which i am)
46 minutes in: thought i heard the music start to fade out, obviously didnt. i think im starting to lose it a bit lol
48 minutes in: with nothing else to occupy my time ive really been starting to drift off. i almost want to open another video to wake me up but that feels like cheating somehow. i guess ill do all the stuff i do before bed and drift off to it. if this is my last entry then you can guess what happened, but if not then you know that too.
The song can litteraly be put on anywhere and it would fit, on the bus, at the dance, when your sleeping, damn…
If you listen to this for an hour it makes you truly respect life
One must imagine doing something for an eternity. For nothing. Happy.
perhaps the act of it.
today i went for a walk up a mountain and found a small rock on the floor and put it in the palm of my hand, i then proceeded to walk up the mountain that was very steep, when i got to the top i held the rock in both hands and looked around me at the beautiful view and played this song while i sat at the top of the mountain i felt so much accomplishment just by carrying that small rock up the mountain
Orpheus dropping some bangers during his time in the underworlds
this song is how it feels playing through a match of free-for-all in cod, repeating getting killed by campers. spawn, die, respawn, die, over and over until your body forces you to leave the match. despite leaving being what you wanted, you can't help but feel you've suffered a worse fate than defeat. surrender.

the worst thing is that sisyphus is that he isnt even controlling his body he just feels the pain and the tiredness
Wait, really?!

This music changed my life.
"The time where you are the strongest may not be at the peak of your life. It could be where your are at the bottom. Life gives you troubles so you can build yourself up and become stronger. That, that is where you are the best. When you feel like everyone's pouncing down on you; where you feel like your are a failure; where you feel like that life is worthless; life gives you the opportunity to build yourself up. Life gives you problems in life to prepare you for harder problems later in life. Just staying at the top forever, feeling like you are perfect and unstoppable, the smallest of problems could bring you down so easily. That's why you need to be in the trough of life at some point. Just improving yourself, increasing your confidence, humility, physical and mental strength; it's what makes you better than yourself before. It's what makes you feel happy, accomplished, confident in life. It what makes you the strongest in life. Because life won't always be so easy all the time. You got to be ready for the challenges ahead."

The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.”
Best workout music. Its all about realizing the pointlessness of it all, and having as much fun as you can with the time you have.

listening to this while reading Camus' "The myth of Sisyphus" just hits different 🔥
alot of people have been making a meme about this but personally i think its terrifying, being forced to push a boulder up a rocky mountain over and over again for eternity, not being able to die or anything
it’s horrible if you think about it
One must Imagine Sisyphus happy.
think deep into it though, if you’re given one direction one thing to do, only one thing for eternity, you may think it would be awful at first, but if it’s all you can do, you may find yourself doing it anyway. it seems like an awful fate but if pushing a boulder up a mountain is the only thing you’ve ever known for as long as you can remember, it seems fulfilling to make those small steps towards the top of the mountain, even though you may subconsciously know you’ll never get there. you celebrate the small victories and continue to push the boulder anyway because what else can you do? it is the same as life, we continue to live, knowing we will never reach our true meaning, but we are happy to live here and now.
Yes, obviously. That's why it's a divine punishment.
@@frog4307 isn't he doing it on purpose?
@@Crygear it was divine punishment
Somebody once said "The insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different result"... Maybe if Sisyphus changed his point of view and found another way to finish his task he would get a "different result". If only one could imagine that...

"One must imagine Sisyphus happy." - Albert Camus
This song represents quite a lot. All though this may sound like a joke (kinda is and is also cringy) it captures something. A feeling of despair but a glimmer of hope. Just maybe you might make it, “one must image sisyphus happy” could also mean a lot of things. Never ending work that never stops coming. The struggle of loosing all your progress. But you need to continue. One must imagine them happy. One must imagine the person happy. One must belive that they are happy. Although the struggle they face is really quite a lot.
The whole idea of a glimpse of hope in a existence full of despair is just beautiful
I mean it was a bit cringe but cool bro
@@Kira-pv4xq it was very cringe now that I look back at it
The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy
Or maybe the idea of serving a great purpose and that being your only worry left and that the idea of a possibility of escaping torment is clear.
respect for the guy holding the rock for 1:01:02
The life... its hard. U can feel it with this music.
Actually a good workout music for pushing something heavy.
I relisten to this song, like it is a eternity. Always pushing the rock to the top of the mountain (listen to full video) and in the end, feel the feeling of returning all it back. But also feeling that I listened to all of it, did all the way up to be able to see how beatiful things can be. Knowing I need to start again, is one of the feelings of life, to start again, put new goals.
this me teaches us that its good to be a masochist
If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can also take place in joy. This word is not
too much. Again I fancy Sisyphus returning toward his rock, and [122] the sorrow was in the beginning.
When the images of earth cling too tightly to memory, when the call of happiness becomes too insistent,
it happens that melancholy arises in man's heart: this is the rock's victory, this is the rock itself. The
boundless grief is too heavy to bear. These are our nights of Gethsemane. But crushing truths perish from
being acknowledged. Thus, Œdipus at the outset obeys fate without knowing it. But from the moment he
knows, his tragedy begins. Yet at the same moment, blind and desperate, he realizes that the only bond
linking him to the world is the cool hand of a girl. Then a tremendous remark rings out: "Despite so many
ordeals, my advanced age and the nobility of my soul make me conclude that all is well." Sophocles'
Œdipus, like Dostoevsky's Kirilov, thus gives the recipe for the absurd victory. Ancient wisdom confirms
modern heroism.
One does not discover the absurd without being tempted to write a manual of happiness. "What! by
such narrow ways-? " There is but one world, however. Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the
same earth. They are inseparable. It would be a mistake to say that happiness necessarily springs from the
absurd discovery. It happens as well that the felling of the absurd springs from happiness. "I conclude that
all is well," says Œdipus, and that remark is sacred. It echoes in the wild and limited universe of man. It
teaches that all is not, has not been, exhausted. It drives out of this world a god who had come into it with
dissatisfaction and a preference for futile suffering. It makes of fate a human matter, which must be
settled among men.
[123]All Sisyphus' silent joy is contained therein. His fate belongs to him. His rock is a thing
Likewise, the absurd man, when he contemplates his torment, silences all the idols. In the universe
suddenly restored to its silence, the myriad wondering little voices of the earth rise up. Unconscious,
secret calls, invitations from all the faces, they are the necessary reverse and price of victory. There is no
sun without shadow, and it is essential to know the night. The absurd man says yes and his efforts will
henceforth be unceasing. If there is a personal fate, there is no higher destiny, or at least there is, but one
which he concludes is inevitable and despicable. For the rest, he knows himself to be the master of his
days. At that subtle moment when man glances backward over his life, Sisyphus returning toward his
rock, in that slight pivoting he contemplates that series of unrelated actions which become his fate,
created by him, combined under his memory's eye and soon sealed by his death. Thus, convinced of the
wholly human origin of all that is human, a blind man eager to see who knows that the night has no end,
he is still on the go. The rock is still rolling.
I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus
teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This
universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each
mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights
is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy

Some people will think that im stupid but for me its a real representation of our society
I had a relationship that lasted 2 years, and i still think bout her sometimes. But what i keep getting back in my mind is all of those sentences that she told once, and one of them all that i remember now, is one that goes like "I dont like super buffed guys really, i just like when they have abs".Since then every time i have abs workout i think about that. But now that she is gone from my life, i only feel the feeling this song gives, just painful realization that no matter how hard i workout for those abs, i cant have her. And i just end up pushing my self, saying to my self "This isn't enough".
And that applies every time i workout, pushing my self, cuz deep down ik im doing it cuz i dont wanna feel weak, but even tho i can get stronger, ik that in the end ill never have her, or anyone like her, and i wont get the happiness i got back in the day. With body dysmorphia, insecurities, being "too buffed", i know that everything that i do, is meaning less.
thank to that im atleast getting closer to my main focus. "stop being weak"
moral of the history, use the pain as the perfect energy.
Stay Safe.
damn i feel sad for you man :(
This sorrow of a broken heart will always haunt you, i know from experience. Always telling you like your not good enough, that you will never deserve love not matter what you do. I don't khow if it will help you, but if she was so picky about guys based on appearance, that means she was a shitty person and that you deserve someone better then her. However that nasty mark she left you will always be with you. Its important that you don't burry it, but take care of it. That part of you is hurt and if left unchecked will lead you to a path of self-destruction and rage.
Tldr: some people will hurt you, to make themselves fell better, and the demons that spawn from there betrail are not your enemies to be silenced, but hurt souls that you need to assure that everything is going to ok
Hope this helps 🥲🤝🥲
Remember that being strong doesn't mean not being weak. True strength of character is also to embrace your weaknesses as true parts of yourself, and work around them.
@@konradklukowski1009 liking men with abs but disliking buff men (which i guess meant bodybuilders that destroy their body with anabolics) doesn't mean she was a shitty person
