Without trivializing too much the mournful tragedy of Sisyphus, I leave here two videos that I found surfing the net, in which two dogs emulate the misfortune of the myth.
I hope that apart from taking a few smiles, Let us think a little.
In hell, Sรญsifo fue obligado a empujar una piedra enorme cuesta arriba por una ladera empinada, but before that it reached the top of the Hill the stone always rolled down, y Sรญsifo tenรญa que empezar de nuevo desde el principio.
The reason for this punishment is not mentioned by Homer, and it is dark (Some suggest that it is a part of Minos ironic punishment: Sรญsifo no querรญa morir y nunca morirรก, but in exchange for a high price, and he will not rest in peace to pay for it).
Segรบn algunos, habรญa revelado los designios de los dioses a los mortales. According to others, It was due to his habit of attacking and killing travelers. Tambiรฉn se dice que aรบn despuรฉs de viejo y ciego seguirรญa con su castigo.
Habรญan pensado los Dioses, con algรบn fundamento, que no hay castigo mรกs terrible que el trabajo inรบtil y sin esperanza.
Pero Sรญsifo enseรฑa la fidelidad superior que niega a los dioses y levanta una y otra vez la roca. รl tambiรฉn juzga que todo estรก bien. This universe henceforth, without love, no le parece estรฉril ni fรบtil. Each of the grains of this stone, each mineral piece of this mountain in the dark, llena por sรญ solo un mundo. The effort to reach the heights is enough to fill a human heart.
ยซHay que imaginarse a Sรญsifo feliz.ยป – Albert Camus
