One must imagine Sisyphus happy

[-] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago

Because he CHOOSES to push the boulder. That's the important distinction. If you wait until you HAVE to do laundry it's not really a choice and it feels like the chores are now dictating your schedule instead of the other way around.

Actually, sisyphus was forced to roll the boulder by hades as punishment, bc he tried to cheat zeus. N the boulder keeps rolling down bc hades enchanted it, so sisyphus could never complete his task

Yes, I know it was his punishment. But he later comes to accept his fate and DECIDES to push the boulder up the hill everyday. It's just a made up story anyway I'm sure people heard other versions hence the downvotes.
